What we do
Halo Build Co is a specialty contractor — we do three things very well rather than everything moderately. The three services connect: a wildfire defense system installed correctly requires understanding both roofing and structural water management; a Velux skylight installed on a Chapter 7A-compliant roof requires knowing the wildfire code alongside the manufacturer's flashing spec.
Residential roofing — re-roofing, repairs, and full replacements across all common Los Angeles roofing materials: asphalt architectural shingles, concrete and clay tile, standing-seam metal, torch-down modified bitumen, TPO and PVC membranes, and slate. We work on everything from 1930s Highland Park Craftsman bungalows to modern architect-designed flat-roof homes in Silver Lake and Pacific Palisades.
Velux skylight installation — deck-mounted, curb-mounted, fresh-air venting (VS, VSE, VSS), sun tunnels, roof windows, and flat-roof systems. Halo Build Co is a Velux dealer, which means we install the full residential product line and provide the manufacturer's 10-year installation warranty. We also fabricate custom architectural skylights — ridge, pyramid, barrel-vault, and lean-to geometries — for atriums, entryways, and large-span applications where standard sizes don't fit.
Wildfire defense systems — roof-mounted sprinkler systems that create a wet perimeter around the home, suppressing ember ignition. Common on hillside properties in Malibu, Pacific Palisades, Bel Air, Brentwood canyons, Hollywood Hills, and Palos Verdes — anywhere within the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. Systems can run on municipal water pressure with optional booster pump, inground tank, or pool-source upgrades depending on property requirements.
Our approach
Three things distinguish how we run projects:
Detailed written estimates before you sign anything. Every estimate includes measured roof square footage (not just "your house is 2,000 sqft, so..."), specific material brand and model, underlayment type, flashing details, ventilation plan, warranty terms, and timeline with weather contingency. If you're comparing bids, ours is the one you can line-item against the others.
Code compliance built into the scope, not sold as an upsell. If your property is in the VHFHSZ, Chapter 7A applies — Class A fire-rated roofing, ember-resistant WUI vents, non-combustible eaves. We spec these on the initial estimate rather than surprising you with change orders after tear-off. Same for HPOZ (Historic Preservation Overlay Zone) design review, Coastal Commission filings, and HOA architectural approvals in Beverly Hills, Palos Verdes Estates, and Rolling Hills.
No pressure tactics. No "discount if you sign this week." No door-to-door canvassing after storms. No cash-only pricing. Our estimates are consistent whether you sign today or a month from now.
Service area
We serve fifteen neighborhoods across Greater Los Angeles from our Marina Del Rey base:
Each neighborhood has its own building stock, code environment, and climate exposure — coastal salt air affects roofing lifespan in Manhattan Beach and Marina Del Rey; VHFHSZ wildfire code applies in Malibu, Bel Air, and Pacific Palisades hillsides; HPOZ overlays apply in Highland Park–Garvanza and portions of Beverly Hills. We size and spec every project to the specific neighborhood's requirements.
Credentials and compliance
Licensed general contractor — active California contractor's license, verifiable on the CSLB registry. License number provided on request and on every written estimate.
