9Roof Age Across Rolling Hills Estates
Converted garages in Rolling Hills Estates are a common source of leaks because the roof covering was never upgraded with the conversion. Realistically, roof covering age across Rolling Hills Estates 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. Many Rolling Hills Estates properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it gives out. Put simply, older Rolling Hills Estates buildings frequently sit on their second or third covering, and the layer count counts more than the age when planning the next one. Streets in Rolling Hills Estates that were built out together tend to need roofs together, which is why one re-roof often brings three more on the same block.
In practice, a proper Rolling Hills Estates inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long before the covering does. A Rolling Hills Estates roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof covering surface; half the evidence is underneath. Los Angeles County is no different. We look over ventilation on every Rolling Hills Estates job, because a roof covering that cannot breathe will not reach its rated working life.
