Pasadena's Craftsman bungalows and Spanish Colonial Revival homes near the San Gabriels need roofs that can handle intense sun, Santa Ana winds, and the occasional heavy winter storm. If you live in 91104, you're probably in one of those 1920s or 1930s houses with deep porches and low-pitched roofs, or a mid-century ranch with a low-slope roof that's seen better days. We know this housing stock because we work on it every week.
Homeowners in Pasadena call Los Angeles Metal Roofing when they're tired of patching asphalt shingles that bake and crack in the heat, or when a windstorm lifts panels and leaves a leak. We're based in Los Angeles and serve Pasadena and the surrounding areas, and we specialize in metal roofing systems that hold up to our local climate. Whether you're near Caltech or over by the Rose Bowl, we can help you figure out the right metal roof for your home.
Metal Roofing in Pasadena (91104)
Pasadena's terrain and housing stock present specific challenges for roofing. Many homes sit on sloped lots with mature trees, and the combination of tight access and steep grades means we often have to plan carefully for material staging and fall protection. Craftsman bungalows typically have low-pitched roofs with deep eaves, which can hide underlying issues like dry rot or failed flashing. Spanish-style homes with clay tile roofs often need a metal retrofit that respects the original profile while improving fire resistance and energy efficiency. The intense UV and heat waves we get here can degrade asphalt shingles quickly, and Santa Ana winds can lift poorly fastened panels. We also see a lot of older homes with multiple roof layers, which can affect whether a retrofit is allowed under current code.
Our team has been serving Pasadena and the greater Los Angeles area for years, and we understand the local building department's requirements and the common pitfalls of roofing in this city. We're fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation, so you're protected.

How a Job Works in Pasadena
Step 1: Give us a call at (213) 325-2806 or fill out our online form to schedule a free on-site assessment. We'll inspect your roof, discuss your options, and provide a detailed written estimate. We'll also help you understand any permit requirements and can point you to the City of Pasadena website for more information on local rules.
Step 2: Once you approve the estimate, we'll schedule the work and handle the permitting process. On the day of installation, our crew will arrive early, protect your landscaping, and get to work. For homes with tight lot access, we may need to use specialized equipment or coordinate with neighbors for staging. We'll keep you informed throughout the project and make sure the job site is safe and secure each day.
Step 3: After the work is complete, we'll do a thorough cleanup, including magnet sweeping for nails and debris removal. We'll walk through the finished roof with you, answer any questions, and provide a warranty and care guide. We leave your property clean and your roof ready for the next storm season.
Metal roofing in Pasadena typically ranges from $8 to $10 per square foot for installation, depending on the material and complexity. Standing seam metal roofing starts at $10 per square foot, while metal roof replacement starts at $9 per square foot. If you're considering a retrofit over existing shingles, that starts at $7 per square foot, but keep in mind that code limits the number of layers you can have. Repairs start at $450, and leak repairs also start at $450. Screw replacement and re-fastening starts at $750. For specialty metals like copper, expect to start at $20 per square foot. The final cost depends on the size of your roof, access, the condition of the existing roof, and how quickly you need the work done.
