9The Conditions a Canoga Park Roof Works Against
On most jobs, summer heat is the main ageing force on a Canoga Park roof covering. Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day once past day, for months. Tile underlayment in Canoga Park dries out and goes brittle while the tile above it still looks new from the street. Afternoon sun on a west-facing Canoga Park slope ages that side years ahead of the rest of the roof covering. Thermal cycling does the harm in Canoga Park — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. Attic ventilation on a Canoga Park property is not optional — trapped heat cooks the covering from underneath. A light-coloured covering in Canoga Park measurably lowers attic temperature and takes load off the air conditioning.
Realistically, loose ridge caps on a Canoga Park roof are a five-minute fix ahead of the winds and a much larger one following. On most jobs, keeping a dated maintenance file on a Canoga Park property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. It is the same story on most Canoga Park streets. As a rule, two visits a year keeps a Canoga Park roof honest: clear the valleys and gutters before the rains, and look over the flashings after the soonest heavy storm. It is the same story on most Canoga Park streets.
