Realistically, where San Dimas buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. Housing stock in San Dimas runs across several eras, and each one brings its own roof. What sits above the ceiling usually tells you when the building went up. In practice, a San Dimas property often carries more than one roof covering type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. Streets in San Dimas that were built out together tend to need roofs together, which is why one re-roof frequently brings three more on the same block. Los Angeles County is no different. Solar arrays on San Dimas roofs complicate replacement, and the panel age rarely matches the roof age.
Uplift at the ridge is the usual failure on a San Dimas roof, and it starts at one loose cap rather than across the field. San Dimas sits where fire-zone assembly requirements apply, which limits what can be installed and how edges and vents must be detailed. On most jobs, metal suits many San Dimas roofs because it sheds debris and meets fire assembly requirements without fuss. We see it on San Dimas roofs every week.
