Roof pitch across Bostonia varies enough that the right material on one street is the wrong one two blocks away. That is as true in Bostonia as anywhere in San Diego County. Put simply, solar arrays on Bostonia roofs complicate replacement, and the panel age rarely matches the roof age. Additions and conversions are common in Bostonia, and the joint between the original roof and the newer section is where nearly all leaks begin. San Diego County is no different. Where Bostonia buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer.
Coatings suit Bostonia buildings with a sound deck and a tired surface — they buy years, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation. Lightweight tile gives Bostonia homeowners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Reclaimed tile can be matched on Bostonia heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new.
