At Meyers Roofing Co., we know that not all roofs are created equal—especially here in Southern California, where modern homes often come with solar panels, chimneys, skylights, attic vents, and other intricate features. While these upgrades can improve energy efficiency, ventilation, and home value, they also demand a higher level of roofing skill and experience to ensure long-term durability and weather protection.

Here’s what makes working on these types of roofs more complex—and why hiring a seasoned, local roofing expert is essential.

The Challenge of Roofing with Fixtures

1. Solar Panels

With the growing demand for solar energy in places like Los Angeles, Orange County, and beach communities such as Laguna Beach, more homeowners are installing rooftop panels. But integrating or working around solar panels is not a basic task.

• Flashing and waterproofing must be done correctly around panel mounts.

• Any mistakes could cause leaks or void warranties on solar equipment.

• Our team at Meyers Roofing Co. collaborates with solar companies or works independently to ensure safe removal and reinstallation if roof work is needed.

2. Chimneys and Skylights

Chimneys and skylights are notorious for being leak-prone areas if not handled correctly.

• Precision flashing and sealing are needed around the base of chimneys to prevent water intrusion.

• Skylights require proper curb installation, flashing kits, and sealants that hold up in Southern California’s sun and seismic shifts.

3. Vents, Pipes, and HVAC Units

Modern roofing systems in SoCal homes often have:

• Attic vents

• Exhaust pipes

• Rooftop HVAC units
  Each requires proper boot flashing and sealants. A small error here could lead to mold growth or energy inefficiency over time.
