Put simply, a Fallbrook roof covering quoted without anyone looking in the attic is a quote based on half the information.
Realistically, solar arrays on Fallbrook roofs complicate replacement, and the panel age rarely matches the roof covering age. This holds across San Diego County. On most jobs, second-storey additions in Fallbrook create a junction between old and new roof that requires correct flashing rather than sealant. Many Fallbrook properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it fails.
