Service area
A Yaqui town founded around 1900, under one square mile, wedged between Phoenix and Tempe about eight miles from downtown.
Between Interstate 10 and Tempe, just east of South Mountain.
Elevation, incorporation, census and area are public record. The climate zone is Maricopa County's, from the county table in the International Energy Conservation Code.
Conditions
Guadalupe sits in the middle of the urban valley, next to Interstate 10, where pavement holds heat into the night. Roofs here never fully cool in summer. Reflective coatings on flat roofs can make a real difference indoors.
Tight lots mean roof runoff often lands close to the house or a neighbor’s wall. Downspouts and scuppers should direct water to where it can drain away rather than pool against masonry.
Storms that cross South Mountain can bring sudden heavy rain and wind. Older flat roofs with patched sections are vulnerable. Clear scuppers and check patches before the season begins.
The Town of Guadalupe handles building permits and inspections inside its limits. Its boundaries adjoin Phoenix and Tempe closely, so confirm that the address is in Guadalupe before applying.
The roofs here
Yaqui families who fled Sonora settled Guadalupe around 1900, and the town incorporated in 1975. Many houses are small, on tight lots, and have been enlarged over generations. Roofs often combine low-slope and pitched sections from different eras, and the joints between them are the first place to look.
Block and masonry houses with flat or near-flat roofs are common. Rolled roofing, coatings and patched membranes cover many of them. A sound deck and positive drainage come first; another coat over a wet roof will not last.
Religious and community buildings at the center of town host festivals and gatherings through the year. Larger roofs on older buildings like these need attention to drainage, parapets and the condition of previous repairs.
Local building patterns help guide an inspection. Your roof’s actual condition, materials and repair history determine the recommendation.
Code and permits
Confirm the requirements for the building and proposed roof assembly. The links below go directly to the relevant authorities.
Guadalupe adopts its building codes by town ordinance. The edition in force could not be confirmed for this page. The town’s building, construction, planning and zoning page is the place to ask which edition governs a roofing permit.
Guadalupe building and planningMaricopa County is in IECC climate zone 2B, hot and dry. Arizona has no statewide energy code like California’s Title 24: the energy rules for a roof are the ones in the IECC edition the city has adopted, applied in that zone. Building type and roof slope still decide which of them apply to a given project.
The county climate zone guideMaricopa County publishes no special wind region list, so there is no county figure to quote for Guadalupe; the design wind speed comes from the ASCE 7 maps for the individual site. Look the address up and confirm the figure with the building department. Wind load rises with the square of the speed, so a few miles an hour changes what the fastenings, the perimeter and the edge metal have to carry.
