    ABOUT PALO ALTO

    Home to Stanford University, One Roof at a Time

    Avera Roofing has done roof work across Palo Alto for years, and the city’s mix of historic and newer homes means every job looks a little different. Palo Alto sits along Highway 101 and Interstate 280, close to Stanford, with tree-lined older neighborhoods on one side and newer infill on the other.

    Old Palo Alto and Professorville have some of the oldest and most architecturally significant roofs in the city, often requiring repair work that matches the original materials closely. Crescent Park and the streets near the Community Center have a similar older housing stock, while Midtown, Barron Park, and the University Avenue district tend to have newer or more recently replaced roofing.

    Palo Alto’s long dry stretch means minor roof issues can sit unnoticed until the first real storm. We recommend an inspection before the rainy season on any roof past 15 years, and we manage the City of Palo Alto permitting process directly so it doesn’t slow your project down.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Answers to what Palo Alto homeowners ask most before scheduling repair or replacement work.

    Almost always — Palo Alto’s building department requires a permit for a full roof replacement, plus inspections at the start and finish of the job. We pull the permit and schedule those inspections ourselves, so it’s one less thing on your plate.
    Most Palo Alto roof replacements take 2 to 4 days — a standard tear-off in Midtown moves faster than a character-matched repair on an older Professorville home. You’ll get a firm timeline once we’ve inspected the roof.
    Yes. Palo Alto sees its share of wind and winter storm damage — if that’s what hit your roof, we’ll document it thoroughly and work directly with your insurance adjuster so the claim moves smoothly.
    Shingle, tile, flat, torch-down, and metal — everything from the character-matched repairs we do near Professorville and Old Palo Alto to standard shingle replacements around Midtown and Barron Park.
    Yes. A leak that goes unnoticed through Palo Alto’s long dry season can turn into real damage once the rain starts — we respond fast to active leaks and storm damage to stabilize the roof and protect your interior.
