Concrete tile suits Dana Point buildings designed for the weight; laying it on framing that was not is a structural question first. As a rule, silicone coatings hold up well on Dana Point roofs that pond slightly, where acrylic would not. We see it on Dana Point roofs every week.
Keeping a dated maintenance file on a Dana Point property pays for itself the earliest time a claim is questioned. This holds across Orange County. Moss on a shaded Dana Point slope should be treated rather than scraped, since scraping takes the granules with it. Walking a Dana Point tile roof damages it; inspection should be from the edge, a ladder or a drone. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
