As a rule, wind exposure is the defining factor on a San Dimas roof. Ridgelines and open slopes see gusts that flat ground never does.
Valley condition is the single best indicator of how a San Dimas roof covering has been maintained. A San Dimas roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof surface; half the evidence is underneath. Los Angeles County is no different. We check ventilation on every San Dimas job, because a roof that cannot breathe will not reach its rated life.
