Sealant is the first casualty in Pauma Valley; it shrinks, cracks and pulls away from every penetration within a few seasons. Expansion and contraction loosens fixings on Pauma Valley roofs long ahead of the material itself gives out.
Valley condition is the single best indicator of how a Pauma Valley roof covering has been maintained. On most jobs, we inspect ventilation on every Pauma Valley project, because a roof that cannot breathe will not reach its rated life. This holds across San Diego County. As a rule, a Pauma Valley roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof covering surface; half the evidence is underneath.
