Downey has some of the largest lots and custom homes in southeast LA County, especially in North and Northwest Downey, where 1940s–60s ranch estates sit under converted shake, tile re-roofs, and heavy architectural shingle. The rest of the city is 1950s tract housing, and the commercial core adds flat-roof buildings from the aerospace era onward.
Converted-shake tear-offs with new decking, underlayment replacement on 1980s–90s tile remodels, complex rooflines on the larger homes, and two-layer tear-offs on the tracts are our core Downey work.
