We see it on Escondido roofs every week. Attic temperatures in Escondido drive shingle working life as much as the weather above does, which is why ventilation matters more here than the brochure suggests. In practice, attic ventilation on a Escondido property is not optional — trapped high temperatures cooks the covering from underneath. Tile underlayment in Escondido dries out and goes brittle while the tile above it still looks new from the street.
Realistically, structural the project on a Escondido roof triggers a separate review beyond the roofing permit itself. In practice, permit requirements in Escondido run through the county or city building department covering Escondido. Minor repairs usually do not need one; a tear-off and replacement does. Codes change, and the county or city building department covering Escondido applies the version current on the day the permit issues, which is one reason a Escondido quote should state the assembly being installed.
