1Choosing a Covering in Mission Viejo
Underlayment choice matters more than covering choice on a Mission Viejo tile roof covering, because that is the layer doing the waterproofing. Lightweight tile gives Mission Viejo property owners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need. Put simply, coatings suit Mission Viejo buildings with a sound deck and a tired surface — they buy years, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation. Concrete tile suits Mission Viejo buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question first. Put simply, flat and low-slope sections in Mission Viejo need a membrane or a coating system, not shingle laid at a pitch it was never designed for.
