A Aliso Viejo roof covering quoted without anyone looking in the attic is a quote based on half the information. As a rule, square footage is only half the cost of a Aliso Viejo roof covering; pitch, access and layer count move the number as much. This holds across Orange County.
A Aliso Viejo roofer who will not put the assembly in writing is not quoting the same job as the one who will. We see it on Aliso Viejo roofs every week. As a rule, check that the Aliso Viejo crew doing the the project is employed by the company quoting it. As a rule, manufacturer certification is what decides it on Aliso Viejo jobs because it is what makes the material warranty enforceable. It is the same story on most Aliso Viejo streets.
