9The Rolling Hills Estates Inspection, Step by Step
Flashing at the wall junction is checked first on any Rolling Hills Estates inspection, because that is where nearly all ceiling stains originate. A correct Rolling Hills Estates inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long ahead of the covering does. Infrared scanning on a Rolling Hills Estates commercial roof covering locates wet insulation that no visual inspection would find. Core samples settle the argument on a Rolling Hills Estates low-slope roof when water is suspected but not visible. As a rule, we check the deck from inside the attic on every Rolling Hills Estates job. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. That is as true in Rolling Hills Estates as anywhere in Los Angeles County.
A maintenance record on a Rolling Hills Estates roof covering also helps at claim time, because it shows the failure was sudden rather than neglected. Drainage is the cheapest maintenance on any Rolling Hills Estates building — blocked outlets cause more damage here than the storms themselves. On most jobs, annual inspection on a Rolling Hills Estates property typically adds two to three years to the back end of a roof's service life. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
