Garage and patio roofs in Escondido are frequently lower slope than the house and call for an entirely different system. Put simply, additions and conversions are common in Escondido, and the joint between the original roof and the newer section is where most leaks begin. We see it on Escondido roofs every week. Many Escondido properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it lets go.
