On most jobs, resealing penetrations on a Borrego Springs roof every few years is the cheapest work anyone will ever do on the building. Checking the attic after the first heavy rain in Borrego Springs finds leaks while they are still stains rather than harm. San Diego County is no different. On most jobs, keeping a dated maintenance file on a Borrego Springs property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. Loose ridge caps on a Borrego Springs roof are a five-minute fix in advance of the winds and a much larger one once past. San Diego County is no different.
Core samples settle the argument on a Borrego Springs low-slope roof when moisture is suspected but not visible. A Borrego Springs inspection should end with a written report and photographs, not a verbal summary and a price. Valley condition is the single best indicator of how a Borrego Springs roof has been maintained.
