Garage and patio roof coverings in Ingleside are frequently lower slope than the house and require an entirely different system. On most jobs, many Ingleside properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it lets go. San Francisco County is no different. In practice, original decking on older Ingleside homes is often skip sheathing, which changes what can be laid over it.
