1How We Inspect a Visitacion Valley Roof

A proper Visitacion Valley inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb let go long before the covering does. This holds across San Francisco County. Put simply, drone access on steep or fragile Visitacion Valley roof coverings gets the detail without anyone walking a covering that cannot take it. Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Visitacion Valley roofs, since the sheathing often gives out before the shingle does. Water readings matter on Visitacion Valley low-slope roofs. Coating over wet insulation seals the issue in rather than solving it. Granule loss in the gutters is the earliest honest signal on a Visitacion Valley shingle roof covering, and it shows up seasons before a ceiling stain does.
