Big Bear Lake is a true alpine community, and roofing here has almost nothing in common with roofing down the hill. At 6,752 feet, the city sits well above the rain-snow line, and snowfall measured at lake level averages roughly 58 inches per season, with considerably more accumulating on the ridges above town.
That single fact drives almost every roofing decision in the valley. Structures have to carry snow load, shed it safely, and survive dozens of freeze and thaw cycles between November and April. A roofing system that performs beautifully in Riverside can fail in a single Big Bear winter.
Our crews work throughout the Big Bear Valley and across the San Bernardino Mountains year-round, so we understand the difference between a 1970s A-frame in Fox Farm, a converted seasonal cabin in Sugarloaf, and a newer custom home in Moonridge. Each one calls for a different approach to pitch, underlayment, ventilation, and snow retention.
Copp Roofing & Construction has been family-owned and operated since 1996, and our home office is in Blue Jay, up on the mountain. We are not a valley contractor who drives up when the weather is nice. We work these elevations through the winter, and we build roofs accordingly.
Snow Load & Snow Shedding
Big Bear's roofs are engineered to carry and release significant snow load. Pitch, fastening, underlayment, and snow retention all have to work together, and we design every replacement with the way snow will actually move off your roof in mind, including where it lands relative to entries, decks, and walkways.
Wildfire & Ember Exposure
Big Bear Valley sits inside the San Bernardino National Forest and much of the area falls within designated wildfire hazard zones. Class A fire-rated roofing assemblies, ember-resistant venting, and clean roof surfaces all contribute to a home's defensibility.
Cabins, A-Frames & Custom Homes
Big Bear's housing stock runs from 1960s and 1970s vacation cabins to full-time residences and recent custom builds. Older cabins frequently carry multiple layers of roofing and outdated flashing details, while newer homes benefit most from maintenance and targeted repair.
Roofing Services in Big Bear Lake
Roof inspections, roof repairs, roof replacements, roof maintenance, and commercial roofing for homeowners, cabin owners, and businesses throughout Big Bear Lake, Big Bear City, and Sugarloaf. Our team works at these elevations year-round and understands what a Big Bear winter does to a roofing system.
ROOF INSPECTIONS
Whether you're buying a home, recovering from a storm, or simply keeping up with routine maintenance, a professional roof inspection identifies problems before they turn into expensive repairs. Our team evaluates the condition of your roofing system, documents signs of wear, and provides honest recommendations based on your roof's age, materials, and Big Bear's heavy winter snowfall, repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and intense high-altitude UV exposure.
ROOF REPAIR
Not every damaged roof needs to be replaced. If your Big Bear Lake roof has a leak, missing shingles or tiles, damaged flashing, or signs of storm damage, we determine whether a repair is the best long-term solution. Our goal is always to extend the life of your existing roof whenever that makes sense.
ROOF REPLACEMENT
When repairs are no longer the most cost-effective option, a roof replacement provides lasting protection and peace of mind. We install steep-pitch metal and high-performance composition systems designed for snow country, helping you choose the right system for your home, your budget, and the way winter storms, heavy snow loads, and spring melt affect roofs in Big Bear Lake.
ROOF MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance is one of the most effective ways to maximize the life of your roof. Regular inspections catch small issues before they become major repairs, which matters especially in Big Bear Lake where Big Bear's heavy winter snowfall, repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and intense high-altitude UV exposure work against a roofing system year after year.
RE-ROOFING
In some cases, re-roofing is a cost-effective alternative to a complete replacement. During your inspection we determine whether your existing roof qualifies and explain the advantages and limitations of each option, so you can make an informed decision rather than a rushed one.
COMMERCIAL ROOFING
From office buildings and retail centers to industrial facilities and multifamily properties, Copp Roofing & Construction provides commercial roofing solutions tailored to your building. We help property owners in Big Bear Lake protect their investment through inspections, repairs, maintenance, roof coatings, and complete replacements.
Exterior Construction Services
Planning more than just a new roof? Copp Roofing & Construction also provides siding, decking, stairs and railings, exterior painting, and other exterior construction services, making it easy to complete your Big Bear Lake home improvement project with one experienced team.
SIDING
Your siding protects your home from moisture, heat, and everyday wear while contributing to curb appeal and energy efficiency. Whether you're replacing damaged siding or updating your exterior, we install quality products built for long-term performance in Big Bear Lake's climate.
EXTERIOR PAINTING
A quality exterior paint job does more than improve appearance. It adds a layer of protection against UV exposure, moisture, and the elements while helping preserve the life of your siding, trim, and other exterior materials.
DECK CONSTRUCTION & REPAIRS
Whether you're replacing an aging deck or building a new outdoor living space, we build durable, functional decks designed to complement your home and stand up to years of use. We work with materials that balance appearance, durability, and low maintenance.
STAIRS & RAILINGS
Safe, well-built stairs and railings are an important part of your home's exterior. We repair and build stair systems and railings that improve accessibility, enhance curb appeal, and meet current building standards.

Roofing Challenges Unique to Big Bear Lake Homes
SNOW LOAD & WINTER ACCUMULATION
Snowfall at lake level averages close to 58 inches per season, and heavy storm cycles can stack significant weight onto a roof in a matter of days. Structural capacity, roof pitch, and the condition of the decking and fasteners all determine how safely that load is carried and released.
During an inspection we look closely at deflection, fastener withdrawal, damaged sheathing, and areas where previous snow events have already stressed the system.
ICE DAMS & FREEZE-THAW DAMAGE
Big Bear's sunny days and freezing nights create constant freeze-thaw movement. Meltwater runs down a warm roof, refreezes at the cold eave, and backs up under the roof covering, which is how many mountain leaks actually begin.
Proper underlayment, ventilation, insulation, and eave detailing are the difference between a roof that manages meltwater and one that leaks every February.
WILDFIRE & EMBER INTRUSION
Big Bear Valley is surrounded by national forest, and wind-driven embers are the primary way homes ignite during a wildfire. Roof assemblies, vents, valleys, and roof-to-wall intersections are all potential entry points.
We evaluate fire-rated material options, ember-resistant venting, and the condition of vulnerable roof details during every inspection.
PINE NEEDLES, DEBRIS & TREE CANOPY
Jeffrey pine and lodgepole debris collects in valleys, behind chimneys, and in gutters, holding moisture against the roof surface and blocking drainage. Left alone, it rots decking and feeds ice dams in winter.
Overhanging limbs also abrade roofing materials and drop damaging deadfall during heavy snow and wind events.
VACATION HOMES & ABSENTEE OWNERSHIP
A large share of Big Bear's homes are second homes and short-term rentals, which means small leaks often go unnoticed for weeks or months. By the time damage is discovered, it has usually reached insulation, framing, or interior finishes.
Scheduled seasonal inspections before and after winter are the most cost-effective protection an absentee owner can put in place.
