Expansion and contraction loosens fixings on Montebello roof coverings long ahead of the material itself gives out. It is the same story on most Montebello streets.

A Montebello roof with working drainage outlasts an identical roof covering without it by years.
3Working With Your Adjuster in Montebello
Realistically, code upgrade cover decides whether a Montebello claim pays for bringing the assembly current or only for like-for-like. That is as true in Montebello as anywhere in Los Angeles County.
