Realistically, a Temple City adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough. It is the same story on most Temple City streets. We do not advise filing a Temple City claim where the damage is clearly age, because a declined claim stays on the record.
On most jobs, beware the Temple City quote that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. The Temple City contractor who tells you a repair will do, when a repair will do, is the one worth calling back. Put simply, manufacturer certification matters on Temple City jobs given that it is what makes the material warranty enforceable.
