On most jobs, deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Borrego Springs roofs, since the sheathing commonly fails before the shingle does. That is as true in Borrego Springs as anywhere in San Diego County. Put simply, we check the deck from inside the attic on every Borrego Springs job. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. San Diego County is no different.
Payment schedules on Borrego Springs work should track progress, never run ahead of it. San Diego County is no different. As a rule, the Borrego Springs contractor who tells you a patch will do, when a make good will do, is the one worth calling back. Ask a Borrego Springs contractor for recent addresses nearby and go and look at the work from the street.
