Simi Valley contains High and Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone parcels, but it is not correct to say that all of Simi Valley is Very High. The parcel's zone must be checked in the CAL FIRE / VCFD Fire Hazard Severity Zone viewer, and on a wildland-urban interface parcel the current citation is Title 24 Part 7, the California Wildland-Urban Interface Code, not the retired CBC Chapter 7A. On such a parcel a Class A fire-rated roof assembly is required.
Published regional market ranges include architectural asphalt at $550 to $900 per square and tile re-lay at $900 to $1,600 per square in a Torrance / South Bay 2026 guide, and California repair work most commonly at $450 to $3,200 in a Modernize guide updated 26 August 2026. One square is 100 square feet of roof surface, not floor area, and a written estimate follows inspection of the actual roof.
Tear it off, fix the deck, rebuild it right.
