As a rule, tPO and modified bitumen both work on Laguna Niguel low-slope roofs, and the choice in most cases comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. Put simply, lightweight tile gives Laguna Niguel homeowners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise need. Orange County is no different. In practice, coatings suit Laguna Niguel buildings with a sound deck and a tired surface — they buy years, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation.
