That is where the money is saved and where the next leak arrives. Realistically, make good makes sense on a San Dimas roof with life left and a localised failure, and nowhere else. This holds across Los Angeles County. Realistically, phasing a large San Dimas building across two seasons is often cheaper than financing the whole job at once.
Second-storey additions in San Dimas create a junction between old and new roof that needs correct flashing rather than sealant. Where San Dimas buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Many San Dimas properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it gives out. That is as true in San Dimas as anywhere in Los Angeles County.
