A Hidden Meadows property often carries more than one roof covering type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. That is as true in Hidden Meadows as anywhere in San Diego County. Second-storey additions in Hidden Meadows create a junction between old and new roof that calls for correct flashing rather than sealant.
