Solar arrays on Aliso Viejo roofs complicate replacement, and the panel age rarely matches the roof covering age. Additions and conversions are common in Aliso Viejo, and the joint between the original roof and the newer section is where nearly all leaks begin. Converted garages in Aliso Viejo are a common source of leaks because the roof was never upgraded with the conversion. In practice, where Aliso Viejo buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next project is a tear-off regardless of what the property owner would prefer.
A proper Aliso Viejo inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long before the covering does. Lifting a few tiles in two or three places is the only way to date the underlayment on a Aliso Viejo tile roof, and it takes fifteen minutes. As a rule, a Aliso Viejo roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof surface; half the evidence is underneath.
