In practice, beware the Crocker-Amazon quote that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. Clean-up and magnetic nail sweep should be in the Crocker-Amazon contract, not assumed.
Permit requirements in Crocker-Amazon run through the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection. Minor repairs in most cases do not call for one; a tear-off and replacement does. Codes change, and the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection applies the version current on the day the permit issues, which is one reason a Crocker-Amazon quote should state the assembly being laid. Worth knowing before you sign anything. On most jobs, commercial the project in Crocker-Amazon usually involves more review than residential and a longer lead time. We see it on Crocker-Amazon roofs every week.
