Supplements are normal on North Hollywood claims once the covering is off and the deck is visible, and they should be raised with evidence rather than argued later. It is the same story on most North Hollywood streets. Partial claims on a North Hollywood roof are common and should be priced as repairs rather than inflated into replacements. Most North Hollywood claims that give out do so because the damage was cleaned up or patched before anyone photographed it. That is as true in North Hollywood as anywhere in Los Angeles County.
A North Hollywood estimate worth reading itemises tear-off, disposal, underlayment, covering, flashing, permit and clean-up separately. Realistically, cheap North Hollywood quotes as a rule skip the flashing. That is where the money is saved and where the next leak arrives. It is the same story on most North Hollywood streets. The variable line on any North Hollywood written price is deck repair, and it should be priced per sheet in writing rather than hidden in an allowance. That is as true in North Hollywood as anywhere in Los Angeles County.
