That is as true in Santa Fe Springs as anywhere in Los Angeles County. A proper Santa Fe Springs inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb let go long before the covering does. Valley condition is the single best indicator of how a Santa Fe Springs roof has been maintained.
Realistically, supplements are normal on Santa Fe Springs claims once the covering is off and the deck is visible, and they should be raised with evidence rather than argued later. This holds across Los Angeles County. Realistically, most Santa Fe Springs claims that let go do so since the damage was cleaned up or patched ahead of anyone photographed it. Photographs taken in advance of any tarping on a Santa Fe Springs property are the most valuable evidence in the whole claim. This holds across Los Angeles County.
