Beware the Twin Peaks estimate that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. Local experience counts in Twin Peaks since the failure modes here are thermal load, wind and drainage rather than snow and ice. We see it on Twin Peaks roofs every week.
As a rule, valley condition is the single best indicator of how a Twin Peaks roof has been maintained. A Twin Peaks inspection should end with a itemised report and photographs, not a verbal summary and a price. It is the same story on most Twin Peaks streets. Granule loss in the gutters is the earliest honest signal on a Twin Peaks shingle roof covering, and it shows up seasons in advance of a ceiling stain does. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
