On most jobs, moisture readings matter on Palmdale low-slope roof coverings. Coating over wet insulation seals the problem in rather than solving it. Valley condition is the single best indicator of how a Palmdale roof covering has been maintained. This holds across Los Angeles County. Lifting a few tiles in two or three places is the only way to date the underlayment on a Palmdale tile roof, and it takes fifteen minutes. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
