Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Lomita roofs, since the sheathing often gives out ahead of the shingle does. Los Angeles County is no different.

Streets in Lomita that were built out together tend to call for roof coverings together, which is why one re-roof often brings three more on the same block. Older Lomita buildings frequently sit on their second or third covering, and the layer count matters more than the age when planning the next one.
