Norco's homes are older than most of its neighbours'. By the Census count, nearly half of its housing was built between 1960 and 1979, a third in the 1970s alone, and only about one unit in six dates from 2000 or later.
A 1970s house is around fifty years old, which is long enough for earlier re-roofs, repairs and added layers to pile up. When you get a quote, ask the roofer to say what is under the top layer and whether the decking will be checked once it is off.

Norco's Building and Safety FAQ lists re-roofing among the jobs that require a permit. Generally only a California licensed contractor or the property owner can pull one, and re-roofing contractors are one of the license types the city names. A Norco building permit is valid for 180 days after it is issued, and the Building Official may grant a one-time 180-day extension.

Norco's ZIP code, 92860, is in climate zone 10 on the Energy Commission's ZIP code list. Replace half the roof or more and the 2025 Energy Code's cool-roof rule applies: a steep roof needs 0.20 aged reflectance and 0.75 emittance, or SRI 16, unless an exception fits, while a low-slope roof needs an aged reflectance of 0.63.

CAL FIRE's 2025 fire hazard map puts some of Norco in Very High zones. In those mapped areas, a new roof, or replacing half or more of an existing one within 12 months, has to be a Class A roof covering under the state's wildland-urban interface code, tested to ASTM E108 or UL 790.

Request an estimate or call the Riverside office. We look at the roof, walk you through what we find and give you a written estimate.
Norco's homes are older than most in our area: half were built in 1975 or earlier, according to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey for 2020 to 2024, and only San Bernardino's are older among the ten cities we focus on. A roof on a house that age may have been replaced before, so it helps to know how many layers are up there before a tear-off is quoted.
