Keeping a dated maintenance file on a Laguna Niguel property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. Orange County is no different. Trimming back branches over a Laguna Niguel roof removes the debris that holds moisture against the covering and shortens its life. Worth knowing before you sign anything. A maintenance record on a Laguna Niguel roof also helps at claim time, given that it shows the failure was sudden rather than neglected.
