On most jobs, moss on a shaded Jamul slope should be treated rather than scraped, since scraping takes the granules with it. Loose ridge caps on a Jamul roof are a five-minute fix in advance of the winds and a much larger one after.
A good Jamul roofer will talk you out of work you do not require, which is the clearest signal there is. That is as true in Jamul as anywhere in San Diego County. A contractor who explains why a Jamul roof failed is more use than one who only quotes to renew it. This holds across San Diego County. Manufacturer certification is what decides it on Jamul jobs because it is what makes the material warranty enforceable.
