1The Mission Viejo Maintenance Year
Keeping a dated maintenance file on a Mission Viejo property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. Clearing the Mission Viejo gutters in late autumn prevents nearly all of the deterioration the first storm would otherwise cause. Drainage is the cheapest maintenance on any Mission Viejo building — blocked outlets cause more deterioration here than the storms themselves. Moss on a shaded Mission Viejo slope should be treated rather than scraped, since scraping takes the granules with it. Loose ridge caps on a Mission Viejo roof are a five-minute fix before the winds and a much larger one after.
Mission Viejo gets its rain in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. That is as true in Mission Viejo as anywhere in Orange County. Afternoon sun on a west-facing Mission Viejo slope ages that side seasons ahead of the rest of the roof. Summer heat is the main ageing force on a Mission Viejo roof. Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day after day, for months.
