Put simply, material choice changes a Laguna Woods roof budget less than the majority of homeowners expect; labour and complexity dominate.
We inspect ventilation on every Laguna Woods job, given that a roof that cannot breathe will not reach its rated life. On most jobs, a Laguna Woods inspection should end with a written report and photographs, not a verbal summary and a price. On most jobs, deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Laguna Woods roofs, since the sheathing often gives out in advance of the shingle does.
