2What Sits on Most Mission Hills Roofs
Converted garages in Mission Hills are a common source of leaks because the roof was never upgraded with the conversion. Where Mission Hills buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer.

As a rule, standing seam on a Mission Hills property hides its fixings, which removes the most common leak path on exposed metal.
