Realistically, roof covering age across Reseda clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few years of each other. On most jobs, additions and conversions are common in Reseda, and the joint between the original roof and the newer section is where the majority of leaks begin. Los Angeles County is no different. In practice, nearly all roofs in Reseda fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later.
