We see it on Canoga Park roofs every week. As a rule, multi-unit buildings in Canoga Park usually call for a low-slope system and a maintenance plan rather than a one-off make good. Older Canoga Park buildings frequently sit on their second or third covering, and the layer count matters more than the age when planning the next one. A Canoga Park property more often than not carries more than one roof type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another.
Policies covering Canoga Park properties generally pay for sudden harm and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly. It is the same story on most Canoga Park streets. Matching provisions in a policy matter on Canoga Park tile roofs where the original profile is discontinued. Put simply, we do not advise filing a Canoga Park claim where the damage is clearly age, given that a declined claim stays on the record. That is as true in Canoga Park as anywhere in Los Angeles County.
