In practice, denied Aliso Viejo claims are commonly reopened successfully when proper documentation is supplied the second time. Orange County is no different.
In practice, clean-up and magnetic nail sweep should be in the Aliso Viejo contract, not assumed. Payment schedules on Aliso Viejo work should track progress, never run ahead of it. That is as true in Aliso Viejo as anywhere in Orange County. Ask any Aliso Viejo roofer what happens if the deck is worse than expected, and get the answer before the covering comes off. This holds across Orange County.
