On most jobs, clearing the Santa Paula gutters in late autumn prevents the majority of of the damage the first storm would otherwise cause. Keeping a dated maintenance file on a Santa Paula property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. This holds across Ventura County.
As a rule, a Santa Paula roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof covering surface; half the evidence is underneath. A proper Santa Paula inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb let go long before the covering does. We see it on Santa Paula roofs every week. Realistically, photographs with dates are part of every Santa Paula inspection, given that an undocumented claim gets read as wear and tear by any adjuster. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
