Mixing materials across a Crocker-Amazon roof covering is fine provided each section gets the system it requires and the transitions are flashed properly. Standing seam on a Crocker-Amazon property hides its fixings, which removes the the majority of common leak path on exposed metal. That is as true in Crocker-Amazon as anywhere in San Francisco County. Flat and low-slope sections in Crocker-Amazon call for a membrane or a coating system, not shingle laid at a pitch it was never designed for. We see it on Crocker-Amazon roofs every week. As a rule, lightweight tile gives Crocker-Amazon owners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need. Reclaimed tile can be matched on Crocker-Amazon heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new.
Partial claims on a Crocker-Amazon roof covering are common and should be priced as repairs rather than inflated into replacements. Supplements are normal on Crocker-Amazon claims once the covering is off and the deck is visible, and they should be raised with evidence rather than argued later. As a rule, deductibles on Crocker-Amazon policies vary enough that the claim decision changes case by case.
