As a rule, tPO and modified bitumen both work on Marina District low-slope roofs, and the choice generally comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. Metal has grown in Marina District for its lifespan and reflectivity, though the fixing system has to allow for movement or the panels telegraph every fastener. It is the same story on most Marina District streets. Silicone coatings hold up well on Marina District roofs that pond slightly, where acrylic would not. This holds across San Francisco County. Cool-rated coverings are worth specifying in Marina District even where code does not require them. San Francisco County is no different. Concrete tile suits Marina District buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question soonest.

On most jobs, ponding on a Marina District low-slope roof dries slowly in marine air, which gives the membrane a harder service life than the rain total suggests. This holds across San Francisco County. Vents and caps corrode faster than the roof in Marina District, and replacing them during a re-roof costs almost nothing. Onshore wind carries salt several blocks inland here, so Marina District roofs require galvanised or stainless fixings rather than the cheaper plated stock. In practice, salt air is the quiet problem on a Marina District roof. It attacks fasteners, flashing and any exposed metal long before the covering itself looks tired.
On most jobs, drainage is the cheapest maintenance on any Marina District building — blocked outlets cause more damage here than the storms themselves.
