Put simply, where Sunland buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next work is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. As a rule, a Sunland property more often than not carries more than one roof type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. This holds across Los Angeles County. Additions and conversions are common in Sunland, and the joint between the original roof and the newer section is where nearly all leaks begin. Original decking on older Sunland homes is often skip sheathing, which changes what can be laid over it. That is as true in Sunland as anywhere in Los Angeles County. Housing stock in Sunland runs across several eras, and each one brings its own roof covering. What sits above the ceiling usually tells you when the building went up.

Realistically, denied Sunland claims are commonly reopened successfully when correct documentation is supplied the second time. Actual cash value and replacement cost behave very differently on an older Sunland roof, and the policy wording decides which applies. On most jobs, a Sunland adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough.
