On most jobs, tPO and modified bitumen both work on Ingleside low-slope roofs, and the choice in most cases comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. That is as true in Ingleside as anywhere in San Francisco County. Silicone coatings hold up well on Ingleside roofs that pond slightly, where acrylic would not.
Clean-up and magnetic nail sweep should be in the Ingleside contract, not assumed. On most jobs, payment schedules on Ingleside the job should track progress, never run ahead of it. Realistically, the Ingleside contractor who tells you a patch will do, when a repair will do, is the one worth calling back.
