Dust and grit settle on Crocker-Amazon roof coverings through the dry months and wash into the drainage the first time it rains. Roof coverings in Crocker-Amazon bake. Asphalt loses its oils, membranes lose their plasticisers, and sealant shrinks back from every flashing. Sealant is the earliest casualty in Crocker-Amazon; it shrinks, cracks and pulls away from every penetration within a few seasons.
9Why Crocker-Amazon Roofs Age the Way They Do
Dust and grit settle on Crocker-Amazon roof coverings through the dry months and wash into the drainage the earliest time it rains. San Francisco County is no different. Expansion and contraction loosens fixings on Crocker-Amazon roofs long ahead of the material itself gives out. Afternoon sun on a west-facing Crocker-Amazon slope ages that side years ahead of the rest of the roof. We see it on Crocker-Amazon roofs every week. Realistically, summer thermal load is the main ageing force on a Crocker-Amazon roof covering. Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day once past day, for months. Thermal cycling does the harm in Crocker-Amazon — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year.
A Crocker-Amazon adjuster works from the scope in front of them, which is why the contractor's report has to be thorough. We the project alongside the adjuster on Crocker-Amazon claims rather than around them, which keeps the scope honest and the timeline shorter. We see it on Crocker-Amazon roofs every week. In practice, we do not advise filing a Crocker-Amazon claim where the deterioration is clearly age, because a declined claim stays on the record.
