Drainage is the cheapest maintenance on any Glendora building — blocked outlets cause more damage here than the storms themselves. Los Angeles County is no different. Annual inspection on a Glendora property typically adds two to three seasons to the back end of a roof's service service life. Walking a Glendora tile roof covering damages it; inspection should be from the edge, a ladder or a drone. In practice, keeping a dated maintenance file on a Glendora property pays for itself the earliest time a claim is questioned.
On most jobs, original decking on older Glendora homes is often skip sheathing, which changes what can be laid over it. Roof pitch across Glendora varies enough that the right material on one street is the wrong one two blocks away. We see it on Glendora roofs every week. Second-storey additions in Glendora create a junction between old and new roof that needs proper flashing rather than sealant. It is the same story on most Glendora streets.
