Moisture readings matter on San Fernando low-slope roof coverings. Coating over wet insulation seals the problem in rather than solving it. That is as true in San Fernando as anywhere in Los Angeles County. Drone access on steep or fragile San Fernando roofs gets the detail without anyone walking a covering that cannot take it. Los Angeles County is no different. A San Fernando roof covering is inspected from the attic as well as the roof covering surface; half the evidence is underneath. We see it on San Fernando roofs every week.
