On most jobs, written, itemised estimates let Hidden Meadows homeowners compare bids properly rather than guessing at what is included.
A Hidden Meadows inspection should end with a documented report and photographs, not a verbal summary and a price. That is as true in Hidden Meadows as anywhere in San Diego County. Flashing at the wall junction is checked first on any Hidden Meadows inspection, because that is where most ceiling stains originate. A proper Hidden Meadows inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb let go long ahead of the covering does.
