Mixing materials across a Diamond Bar roof is fine provided each section gets the system it needs and the transitions are flashed properly. Underlayment choice is what decides it more than covering choice on a Diamond Bar tile roof, given that that is the layer doing the waterproofing.
Lifting a few tiles in two or three places is the only way to date the underlayment on a Diamond Bar tile roof, and it takes fifteen minutes. Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Diamond Bar roofs, since the sheathing commonly fails before the shingle does. This holds across Los Angeles County. We check the deck from inside the attic on every Diamond Bar job. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway.
