Quick Answer
You likely need a roof replacement — not a repair — when leaks show up in several unrelated areas, shingles are brittle or curling across most of the roof, the decking feels soft, or an asphalt roof is past roughly 20–25 years old. Green Ladder Roofing inspects the whole roof in person, documents it with photos, and gives you a free written estimate that compares replacement with a targeted repair when a repair still makes sense.
● Emergency Roof Repair
If a storm has already caused a leak, we’ll make an emergency repair to stop the damage. If you then move forward with a full repair or re-roof, your emergency repair credit rolls toward that project.
01
Tell us what’s leaking. Call (626) 340-0151 for the quickest response.
02
We tarp or patch the problem area to protect your home, then document the damage with photos.
03
Go ahead with a repair or re-roof and your emergency repair credit rolls toward the project. Ask our team for details.
Know the Warning Signs
A single leak usually means a repair. A pattern of problems usually means the roof is near the end of its service life. These are the signs we look for before recommending a replacement.
Asphalt shingle roofs often last 20–30 years. Tile itself lasts much longer, but the underlayment beneath it typically wears out first.
When water shows up in different rooms or keeps returning after repairs, the roof system — not one spot — is usually failing.
Brittle, cupped, or missing shingles across large sections, and heavy granule loss in gutters, point to a worn-out surface.
A dip in the roofline or soft spots underfoot mean water has reached the wood decking — a structural reason to replace.
Slipped tiles and leaks on an older tile roof often mean the underlayment needs replacing, even if many tiles are reusable.
If repair costs keep climbing toward a meaningful share of a new roof, replacement usually costs less over time.

Common Questions
How do I know if my roof needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
Replacement usually makes sense when leaks appear in several areas, shingles are curling or missing across most of the roof, the decking is soft or sagging, or an asphalt roof is roughly 20–25+ years old. We inspect in person and tell you whether a focused repair or a full replacement is the better value.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Pasadena?
Cost depends on roof size, material, slope, access, the number of layers to remove, and decking condition. We provide a free written estimate with a clear scope after inspecting your roof — before any work is approved.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Timing depends on roof size, material, access, and weather. Your written proposal outlines the expected schedule for your specific project.
What roofing materials do you install?
We install asphalt shingles, clay and concrete tile, synthetic slate, and flat or low-slope membrane systems, along with the underlayment, flashing, and ventilation that go with them. See roofing types to compare options.
Do you offer warranties on a new roof?
Yes. As a GAF Master Elite contractor we can offer enhanced GAF system warranty options on qualifying installations, with 25–50 year roofing system warranty options depending on the system chosen.
Can I finance a roof replacement?
Yes — $0 down and 0% financing for 12–18 months is available on approved credit. Ask our team for current terms.
How do you protect my property during installation?
We plan site protection for landscaping, driveways, and access areas before work starts and clean up thoroughly throughout the project.
Can tile be reused when replacing a tile roof?
Often, yes. On many tile roofs the underlayment fails before the tile, so sound tiles can be removed, the underlayment replaced, and the tile reset — replacing only broken pieces.
How soon can you come out?
Inspections and estimates in Pasadena are typically scheduled within 24–48 hours, and we call you back within 15 minutes on working days after you submit a request.
