As a rule, granule loss in the gutters is the earliest honest signal on a Culver City shingle roof covering, and it shows up years ahead of a ceiling stain does. We photograph every elevation on a Culver City job so the documented estimate can be read against what is actually up there. A Culver City roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof surface; half the evidence is underneath. It is the same story on most Culver City streets.
