In practice, ask any San Dimas roofer what happens if the deck is worse than expected, and get the answer before the covering comes off. Inspect the CSLB licence number in advance of any San Dimas contractor starts, and confirm liability cover and workers' compensation are current. The San Dimas roofer who tells you a repair will do, when a repair will do, is the one worth calling back. Payment schedules on San Dimas work should track progress, never run ahead of it.
Codes change, and the San Dimas building department applies the version current on the day the permit issues, which is one reason a San Dimas written price should state the assembly being laid. Commercial the project in San Dimas in most cases involves more review than residential and a longer lead time. Put simply, historic districts near San Dimas may restrict covering type and colour, which is worth confirming before materials are ordered. This holds across Los Angeles County.
