From Leucadia's beach streets to Village Park and the larger lots in Olivenhain, we handle low-slope beach cottages, classic shingle, and the tile roofs east of El Camino Real.
At McKay Roofing and Solar, we've been working roofs across San Diego County since 1981. We see the same roof types and the same failures over and over, so we're not guessing what works in your area.
West of the 5, salt air corrodes flashing and fasteners long before roofing material wears out, and flat-roof sections on remodeled cottages pond after winter storms. In Olivenhain, wind exposure and long tile runs mean slipped tiles and worn underlayment.
We also see a lot of layered repairs. One patch over another. Those hold for a while, then fail together. Many calls start as a normal roof repair, but end up being bigger conversations once the roof is inspected fully.
Coastal Encinitas is moving to corrosion-resistant details — better flashing metal, sealed fasteners, cool-rated shingle. Olivenhain and Village Park tile roofs mostly need lift-and-relay underlayment work, not new tile.
We help homeowners decide when roof replacement makes sense instead of continuing short-term fixes. Every street is a little different here, so replacement plans need to match the structure, not just the material.
The marine layer trims morning production near the coast, so design matters. Encinitas permits are solar-friendly, and as Tesla and Enphase certified installers we do frequent battery additions for the SDG&E evening peak.
We often inspect the roof first to decide if solar installation should happen now or after roofing work. Doing things in the right order avoids pulling panels off again a few years later.
One licensed contractor for the roof and the solar on it — since 1981. Free estimates, financing available, and service for systems whose original installer has closed.
Being local also means faster follow-ups and better accountability. When a contractor’s shop is minutes away, problems get handled quicker once work starts.
