That is as true in San Dimas as anywhere in Los Angeles County. In practice, drainage is the cheapest maintenance on any San Dimas building — blocked outlets cause more damage here than the storms themselves. In practice, keeping a dated maintenance file on a San Dimas property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. Put simply, moss on a shaded San Dimas slope should be treated rather than scraped, since scraping takes the granules with it.
In practice, exposed sites in San Dimas require closer fastening patterns than the manufacturer's flat-ground minimum. Debris load is heavy in San Dimas — needles, leaves and grit collect in valleys through the dry months and block them the earliest time it rains hard. Access is part of the quote on steep San Dimas properties, and any honest estimate says so up front. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
