A Laguna Niguel roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof surface; half the evidence is underneath. A done right Laguna Niguel inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long before the covering does.
On most jobs, clearing the Laguna Niguel gutters in late autumn prevents nearly all of the damage the first storm would otherwise cause. Most Laguna Niguel roof coverings that fail early fail at a penetration someone could have resealed for a few hundred dollars. Orange County is no different.

TPO and modified bitumen both work on Laguna Niguel low-slope roofs, and the choice usually comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. Lightweight tile gives Laguna Niguel owners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need.
