3Why Poway Roofs Age the Way They Do
Put simply, expansion and contraction loosens fixings on Poway roofs long before the material itself gives out. Sealant is the first casualty in Poway; it shrinks, cracks and pulls away from every penetration within a few seasons. Roofs in Poway bake.

Where Poway buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the homeowner would prefer. San Diego County is no different.

Drainage is the cheapest maintenance on any Poway building — blocked outlets cause more damage here than the storms themselves. We see it on Poway roofs every week. Most Poway roofs that fail early fail at a penetration someone could have resealed for a few hundred dollars.
