That is as true in Bonsall as anywhere in San Diego County.
As a rule, payment schedules on Bonsall work should track progress, never run ahead of it. It is the same story on most Bonsall streets. Realistically, a good Bonsall roofer will talk you out of the job you do not need, which is the clearest signal there is. We see it on Bonsall roofs every week. Realistically, documented scope, written price and a itemised warranty are the minimum on any Bonsall job. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
