Attic ventilation on a Palmdale property is not optional — trapped high temperatures cooks the covering from underneath. Afternoon sun on a west-facing Palmdale slope ages that side years ahead of the rest of the roof.
Put simply, flat and low-slope sections in Palmdale require a membrane or a coating system, not shingle laid at a pitch it was never designed for. Put simply, tPO and modified bitumen both work on Palmdale low-slope roof coverings, and the choice usually comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. Reclaimed tile can be matched on Palmdale heritage roof coverings, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new.
