Second-storey additions in Dana Point create a junction between old and new roof that needs correct flashing rather than sealant. Solar arrays on Dana Point roof coverings complicate replacement, and the panel age rarely matches the roof covering age. Converted garages in Dana Point are a common source of leaks given that the roof was never upgraded with the conversion. We see it on Dana Point roofs every week.
Flashing at the wall junction is checked first on any Dana Point inspection, because that is where most ceiling stains originate. It is the same story on most Dana Point streets. Realistically, we check the deck from inside the attic on every Dana Point job. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. This holds across Orange County. Photographs with dates are part of every Dana Point inspection, given that an undocumented claim gets read as wear and tear by any adjuster. Orange County is no different.
