Roofers in Highland, CA
Roof inspection in Highland, CA is the smartest first call a homeowner can make, because this city’s mix of mountain air, desert heat, and Santa Ana winds ages roofs faster than almost anywhere else in the Inland Empire. Oakmont Roof Repair has served Highland since 2013, and we carry seven major roofing brands so your inspection report comes with real material options, not a sales script. If you’ve spotted a stain on the ceiling or lost shingles after a wind event, call (866) 942-0875 for a straight answer.
Why Highland Homes Are Different
Highland sits tight against the base of the San Bernardino Mountains, and that geography quietly punishes roofs. During the day, summer temperatures push past 100°F and the sun’s UV breaks down asphalt shingle granules and dries out sealants faster than in coastal areas. Then the evening shift kicks in: cool mountain air drops down the slopes, and the rapid thermal cycling makes roofing materials expand and contract hard. Tile cracks at the edges. Shingles lift at the laps. Nails back out. It’s a slow-motion failure that flat inland cities simply don’t experience at the same rate.
Most Highland homes were built between the 1980s and early 2000s as stucco tract houses with concrete tile or asphalt shingle roofs. Many sit on sloped lots where the roof line steps with the foundation, and the flashing details where roof meets retaining wall or chimney are a common leak point. Then there’s the wind. Santa Ana events funnel straight through the Cajon Pass and hit west-facing slopes along the foothill streets hard. After a big blow, we find cracked ridge tiles and missing shingles clustered on those exposures, the same wind that drives wildfire risk up the mountain also tears loose roofing components that were fine a week earlier.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Highland Services
When Highland homeowners call us, they usually need one of two things: a repair to stop a known problem, or a replacement they’ve been putting off. Here’s what those jobs look like in this city.
Roof Repair in Highland
Most repairs in Highland trace back to two culprits: wind-loosened tile or shingles on west-facing slopes, and failed flashing at the stepped transitions common on foothill lots. We replace cracked ridge tiles, reseal vents and pipe boots, patch storm-damaged sections, and re-secure flashing before winter’s concentrated rainstorms expose every weakness at once. If you’ve noticed granules in the gutter or a damp spot after the last storm, the fix is usually smaller and cheaper than the leak suggests. See the full scope on our Roof Repair in Highland page.
Roof Replacement in Highland
When a Highland roof reaches the point where patching costs more than replacing, the terrain and climate shape the project. Foothill homes on sloped lots need proper underlayment and stepped flashing tied into retaining walls, and the tile or shingle choice should account for UV intensity and wind exposure from the pass. Because we carry seven manufacturer lines, we can match the material to the home and the budget rather than pushing one brand. Details are on our Roof Replacement in Highland page.

Roof Inspection in Highland
A roof inspection in Highland answers the question every homeowner asks after a Santa Ana wind event or a ceiling stain: what condition is the roof actually in, and what does it need right now? On 1980s-to-2000s tract homes at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains, UV degradation and wind damage often show up in places you can’t see from the ground, which is why we offer inspection as a standalone service through our Roof Inspection program. You get an honest condition report before committing a dollar to repairs or replacement.

A standard roof inspection in Highland typically runs $150 – $300 depending on roof size and access, with added drone or thermal imaging work at $75 – $150 per service.

We walk the entire roof surface, check flashing, sealants, tile or shingle condition, and the underside of the roof from the attic, then deliver a written report with photos and a prioritized repair list.
Hail Damage Roof
Signs you need it
After a hailstorm, you find dents in roof vents or gutters, broken tile corners, or circular impact marks on shingles that expose the matting beneath.

What Highland Customers Say
"Added a ridge vent and cleared the blocked soffit vents. Attic temperature in the summer dropped noticeably and the upstairs is livable now."
— Sarah Vaughn"Valley had been done without proper underlayment and was leaking. Redone correctly, and he explained exactly what had been wrong so I could understand it."
— Alma Guzman"Storm took part of the ridge off at night. They tarped it the same evening so the rain didn't get in, and did the real repair the following week."
