That is as true in Marina District as anywhere in San Francisco County. Realistically, a Marina District roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof covering surface; half the evidence is underneath. Core samples settle the argument on a Marina District low-slope roof when moisture is suspected but not visible.

Itemised scope, itemised price and a itemised warranty are the minimum on any Marina District project. A good Marina District roofer will talk you out of work you do not need, which is the clearest signal there is. On most jobs, check the CSLB licence number in advance of any Marina District roofing company starts, and confirm liability cover and workers' compensation are current. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
