In practice, afternoon sun on a west-facing Hidden Meadows slope ages that side seasons ahead of the rest of the roof.
Put simply, flashings at the chimney on an older Hidden Meadows house in most cases require attention well before the covering does. We see it on Hidden Meadows roofs every week. Annual inspection on a Hidden Meadows property typically adds two to three years to the back end of a roof's service life. Realistically, clearing the Hidden Meadows gutters in late autumn prevents nearly all of the damage the first storm would otherwise cause.
