Attic ventilation on a Crocker-Amazon property is not optional — trapped heat cooks the covering from underneath. San Francisco County is no different.
9The Conditions a Crocker-Amazon Roof Works Against
Tile underlayment in Crocker-Amazon dries out and goes brittle while the tile above it still looks new from the street. This holds across San Francisco County. Sealant is the first casualty in Crocker-Amazon; it shrinks, cracks and pulls away from every penetration within a few seasons. Roof coverings in Crocker-Amazon bake. Asphalt loses its oils, membranes lose their plasticisers, and sealant shrinks back from every flashing. On most jobs, afternoon sun on a west-facing Crocker-Amazon slope ages that side seasons ahead of the rest of the roof. Low-slope sections in Crocker-Amazon hold high temperatures worst, which is why coatings and reflective membranes pay for themselves here. It is the same story on most Crocker-Amazon streets. As a rule, attic temperatures in Crocker-Amazon drive shingle life as much as the weather above does, which is why ventilation matters more here than the brochure suggests. It is the same story on most Crocker-Amazon streets.
In practice, denied Crocker-Amazon claims are commonly reopened successfully when proper documentation is supplied the second time. San Francisco County is no different. On most jobs, deductibles on Crocker-Amazon policies vary enough that the claim decision changes case by case. Realistically, policies covering Crocker-Amazon properties generally pay for sudden damage and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly.
