About Center Drive / Howard Hughes
Center Drive and the Howard Hughes Center form a commercial precinct, not a residential neighbourhood, and this page covers it as a precinct only. The Howard Hughes Center, opened in 2001 beside the San Diego Freeway, had by 2015 reached 1.3 million square feet of office space in high-rise buildings, 3,200 apartments, and a renovated shopping mall — figures from Wikipedia, dated, and repeated here as dated. Pepperdine's West Los Angeles Campus at 6100 Center Drive sits in the same precinct.
Homes and roofs here
The roofing angle is high-rise and low-slope commercial work: apartment-block membrane work, podium and garage roofs, and mall and office parapet and penetration detailing — a different trade, crew, and permit path from tract pitched roofing. This page is a standalone commercial page, and it does not fold Center Drive apartments into a Westchester homes page.
Roofing for Center Drive / Howard Hughes
The distinction that matters most here is owner versus homeowner. Roofs on multi-unit buildings are typically association common elements, so who pays and who approves is settled against the building's CC&Rs before work is scoped. A Center Drive apartment roof is never treated here as a single homeowner's reroof.

How we execute roofing work at Center Drive / Howard Hughes
Every job is planned around the roof that is actually there, not a generic template: its age, its covering, its junctions, and its access.
Coastal postwar stock
A 1940s–1950s tract build-out, now on its second or third covering, sitting near LAX on a dune-sand bluff plateau, where salt air and winter rain do the ageing.
Permits per address
Permit authority is confirmed for the address before work starts. Westchester addresses in the City of Los Angeles run through LADBS; adjacent-city pages state their own authority where it differs.
Staging and access
Staging, boom-truck limits, and roof-to-grade drainage are confirmed for the specific address before work starts, so access problems are planned rather than discovered on the day.
Roof problems we fix in Westchester
Brown ceiling stain after a hard rain
Winter rain after a dry summer finds sealants that cracked in the heat and flashing that shifted. The stain rarely sits below the entry point, so the visit traces the water along decking and framing first.
Missing or lifted shingles after wind
Coastal wind lifts shingles at ridges, hips, eaves, and rakes. Lifted, creased, and missing pieces are replaced and matched to the existing roof where the profile is still available.
Gutters overflowing and staining the siding
Overflowing gutters push water back under the roof edge and down the siding. Clearing, re-pitching, and discharge correction come before any covering work that the overflow has damaged.
Attic heat and moisture
Blocked or one-sided attic ventilation traps heat and moisture, which ages decking and underlayment from below. Intake and exhaust are corrected as a balanced system, not by adding a vent at random.
What roofing at Center Drive / Howard Hughes costs
No firm price for a specific roof is quoted on this site. Dated Los Angeles market data, dated October 2026 and labelled as market data, is reported in the cost blog post — never as this business’s price. A firm price for a specific roof comes from inspecting that roof.
Roof replacement cost in Westchester: what homeowners actually pay (dated Los Angeles market data only).
Size and scope of the work
A single pipe boot or a handful of shingles is a different scope from a valley rebuild or a full tear-off. The visit measures what is actually failing before any scope is set.
Pitch, access, and staging
Steep slopes, second stories, bluff-edge staging, and limited ladder access change how long a job takes to set up and complete safely.
Material and matching
Covering type, flashing metal, and whether a discontinued profile can still be matched all change the scope — and a match that cannot be sourced is said plainly before work starts.
