Marine layer keeps Redondo Beach roof coverings damp into late morning the majority of of the year, and slow-drying surfaces favour moss on the shaded slopes. Timber in Redondo Beach roof coverings carries more moisture year-round, so deck condition matters more here than the age of the covering. We see it on Redondo Beach roofs every week. Put simply, gutters on Redondo Beach properties corrode from the inside, and the first sign is usually staining on the fascia rather than a visible hole. It is the same story on most Redondo Beach streets.
