Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day after day, for months. We see it on La Habra roofs every week. La Habra gets its rain in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. This holds across Orange County. Realistically, thermal cycling does the damage in La Habra — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. That is as true in La Habra as anywhere in Orange County.
Most roofs in La Habra fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their service life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later. Streets in La Habra that were built out together tend to need roof coverings together, which is why one re-roof often brings three more on the same block. This holds across Orange County. Many La Habra properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it fails.
