Shingle Roof Replacement in Bloomington: what actually fails

Check the layer count at the rake edge before anything else. Older Bloomington properties have frequently been re-covered at least once, and if a roof has already been overlaid then another layer is not an option -- which turns what you were told was a cheap job into a tear-off, and it is better to know before the deposit.

Composition shingle in zone 10 ages faster than the warranty suggests, because warranties are written for an average American climate and this is not one. Expect granule loss and brittleness to show earlier here than the same product would on the coast, and judge a roof by its condition rather than its paperwork.

  • County permit route confirmed -- this is unincorporated
  • Every structure on the parcel, house and outbuildings alike
  • Long-span low slope checked for ponding between purlins
  • Layer count, because these roofs are often already re-covered

What it costs

Shingle roof replacement cost in Bloomington

Composition shingle runs about $6 to $9.50 per square foot in the Inland Empire -- below the roughly $8.50 typical in Los Angeles and well above the $4 national figure. Judge the roof by condition rather than warranty, because zone 10 ages a covering faster than the paperwork assumes. Two things move a Bloomington quote. The permit is San Bernardino County rather than a city, which is a different fee schedule. And larger parcels usually mean more than one roof, so expect an itemized quote rather than a single figure.

01

What makes it cheaper

A single-layer tear-off onto sound plywood, a simple roof, and a color whose aged rating is comfortably compliant.

02

What makes it cost more

A second or third existing layer, skip sheathing, a steep pitch, or a dark color that needs a premium product to meet the aged minimum.

03

The corner not to cut

Ventilation. On a roof this exposed, poor attic ventilation will cook the next covering as fast as it cooked the last.

Buildings in Bloomington

Roofs in Bloomington, and what that means for shingle roof replacement

The thing to get right in Bloomington is who issues the permit. It is unincorporated, so a re-roof goes through San Bernardino County rather than any city -- a different application, a different fee schedule and a different inspector. Larger parcels also mean more than one roof on a property, and the outbuildings are usually the ones in worse condition.

Bloomington is unincorporated San Bernardino County, so its building permits come from the county rather than from a city building department.

Roof Replacement in Bloomington

Before you replace

Some roofs that get replaced did not need to be

This is a replacement company saying so. In this climate the most expensive mistake is buying the whole roof when the job was the felt underneath it.

01

A failed detail proves nothing about the field

A slipped course, a perished boot, a flashing that has let go: repairs, in the hundreds. Whether the roof is finished is decided by the covering away from the failure, and that is a separate thing to go and look at.

02

Sometimes insulation beats a new roof

If the complaint is an unbearable upstairs rather than a leak, attic insulation and ventilation will usually do more than a new covering -- and it happens to exempt you from the cool-roof requirement as well.

03

Sometimes the answer is replace

We will say so when it is, and it is the same piece of advice as the opposite one: worth nothing unless you are shown what it rests on.

Questions

Before you book shingle roof replacement

The questions that come up, before you have to ask.

Questions

What homeowners here ask

Can I just have new shingles laid over the old ones?

It is legal up to a limit and it is a bad idea in this heat. Two layers hold more heat than one, the deck cannot dry, and the new covering ages faster on top of the old. It also hides the sheathing, which is the one thing a survey most needs to see.

Does the color I choose affect compliance?

It can. The requirement is on the aged solar reflectance in the CRRC listing, and the darker end of most ranges is where it gets marginal. Pick the color you want, then check its listing rather than assuming.

What is an aged solar reflectance and why does it matter?

It is the product's performance after weathering, not when new, and it is the only figure Title 24 accepts. The Cool Roof Rating Council tests at three-year exposure sites because a shingle that leaves the factory at 0.35 can age to 0.22. If a quote cites an initial reflectance, it is citing the wrong number.

Who pulls the permit -- the city or the county?

It depends on the address, and people get this wrong constantly. Rialto, Fontana, Colton and San Bernardino are incorporated cities with their own building departments. Bloomington, Muscoy and Lytle Creek are unincorporated San Bernardino County. We pull it either way, but a contractor who files in the wrong place costs you a week.

Is it cheaper to relay my tile than replace it?

Usually by about half. A lift and relay is $7,000 to $19,000 against $26,000 to $52,000 for a full tile replacement, because the expensive part of a tile roof is the tile and you already own it. Most Inland Empire tile is concrete in profiles still manufactured, so breakage can be matched.

Need shingle roof replacement in Bloomington?

Free inspection, and a written quote against a written scope. Aged ratings quoted from the CRRC listing, never initial ones.
