In practice, additions and conversions are common in Walnut, and the joint between the original roof covering and the newer section is where most leaks begin. Put simply, roof age across Walnut clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few seasons of each other. Los Angeles County is no different. In practice, where Walnut buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next project is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. That is as true in Walnut as anywhere in Los Angeles County. Second-storey additions in Walnut create a junction between old and new roof covering that needs proper flashing rather than sealant.

Los Angeles County is no different.
