We check the deck from inside the attic on every Mission Hills job. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. It is the same story on most Mission Hills streets.
As a rule, cool-rated coverings are worth specifying in Mission Hills even where code does not require them. Los Angeles County is no different. In practice, metal has grown in Mission Hills for its lifespan and reflectivity, though the fixing system has to allow for movement or the panels telegraph every fastener. It is the same story on most Mission Hills streets. Underlayment choice is what decides it more than covering choice on a Mission Hills tile roof, because that is the layer doing the waterproofing. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
