Thermal cycling does the damage in Westlake Village — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. Attic temperatures in Westlake Village drive shingle service life as much as the weather above does, which is why ventilation matters more here than the brochure suggests. Afternoon sun on a west-facing Westlake Village slope ages that side seasons ahead of the rest of the roof covering. In practice, a light-coloured covering in Westlake Village measurably lowers attic temperature and takes load off the air conditioning. Ventura County is no different. As a rule, tile underlayment in Westlake Village dries out and goes brittle while the tile above it still looks new from the street.
As a rule, patch makes sense on a Westlake Village roof with life left and a localised failure, and nowhere else. It is the same story on most Westlake Village streets. Phasing a large Westlake Village building across two seasons is more often than not cheaper than financing the whole project at once. On most jobs, deck replacement on a Westlake Village work is unknown until the tear-off, which is why it belongs in the contract as a per-sheet rate. We see it on Westlake Village roofs every week.
