Concord is not a city we drive to. It is where California Roof Pros is headquartered, at 5650 Imhoff Drive off Highway 4, which means when a Concord homeowner calls about a leak, the crew is often minutes away, not scheduled for Thursday.

The Largest City in the County, and Its Roofs Come Due in Waves
Concord is the biggest city in Contra Costa County, and most of it was built in the postwar boom: wave after wave of 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s tract neighborhoods, from Holbrook Heights and Sun Terrace to Dana Estates, Colony Park, and the Clayton Valley border. Because whole neighborhoods went up together, their roofs age together. Most of these homes are on their second or third roof now, and the composition shingle installed in the late 1990s and 2000s is reaching the end of its service life across entire streets at once.
Concord’s inland climate does the aging. Summer highs regularly push into the 90s and beyond, and that heat load, cycling against cool wet winters, is what cracks field shingles, dries out pipe jack seals, and curls the south-facing planes years before the north side shows anything. The most common Concord service call we run is a winter leak at a plumbing vent or chimney on a roof whose shingles still have life, which is a repair, not a replacement, and we will tell you which one you actually need.
The eastern and southern edges of the city, toward Lime Ridge and the Mount Diablo foothills, include areas carrying fire hazard severity zone designations under the 2025 state maps. Concord is one of a dozen Contra Costa cities with mapped very-high-hazard acreage. That is parcel-specific, it determines whether a Class A assembly is mandatory on your replacement, and we verify it by address on every inspection.
How Concord Reroof Permits Work
Concord runs its own Building Division, with the Permit Center at 1950 Parkside Drive, and it makes re-roofing unusually easy to permit correctly: the city’s online Virtual Permit Center has a dedicated Reroof application type, separate from general building permits. Permits are required for re-roofing, inspections are scheduled through the city, and as your contractor we handle the whole sequence.
Concord sits in California Climate Zone 12, so the state energy code’s cool roof requirements apply to many re-roofs, with exceptions for homes with R-38 ceiling insulation or radiant barrier roof sheathing. We establish which path your home qualifies for before materials are ordered, because cool roof compliance is confirmed at final inspection, not negotiated after.
