We’re Mercer Roofing, and we send every Maywood homeowner their technician’s name and photo before arrival, plus a written price before any work starts. Call (743) 200-8347 to schedule your free estimate.
Maywood is one of the most densely populated cities in the United States – roughly 27,000 residents in barely 1.2 square miles – which means nearly every roofing project here involves navigating side yards just 3 – 4 feet wide and hand-carrying materials through narrow gates. The 1920s – 1940s housing stock, successive re-roofing layers, and strict LA County tear-off requirements combine to make Maywood jobs genuinely different from work in South Gate, Bell, or Huntington Park.
Why Maywood Homes Are Different
Maywood’s residential grid is almost entirely wood-frame California bungalows and small multi-family buildings from the 1920s to 1950s, built cheek-by-jowl with minimal setbacks. Low-pitched gable and hip roofs with composition shingles dominate, but decades of re-roofing have left many homes with two or three shingle layers that must be fully removed to comply with current LA County code. That tear-off requirement alone adds a full day of labor compared to a single-layer replacement.
The inland Los Angeles Basin climate hits these aging roofs hard. Summer highs regularly top 90°F, baking asphalt shingles until granules wash away and cracks open. Fall Santa Ana winds tear at brittle or improperly nailed shingles, and the November – March rainy season finds every weak spot in flashing around the low-pitch valleys common on these homes. We’ve replaced entire valley sections in Maywood after one December storm exposed forty-year-old flashing that had been hidden under three layers of shingles.
Because lots here leave virtually no staging room, we often cannot park a shingle conveyor or roll a dumpster alongside the house. Stripped shingles get hand-carried through a narrow gate or passed over a shared fence line – labor that adds hours to what would be straightforward in a less compressed city. We account for this in our written estimates so the price you see is the price you pay.

What Maywood Customers Say
"Chimney flashing was the culprit for years of dark stains on the ceiling. Fixed it in one visit and no more stains."
- Ian O."Roofer showed his ID and gave me the crew lead's name before anyone climbed the ladder. Replaced a patch of missing shingles and resealed two vent boots. Written estimate matched the final bill."
- Brian J."Full tear-off and new shingles on our two-story. They covered the landscaping with tarps and ran a magnet over the yard afterward. Didn't find a single nail."
- Karen V.
