1Maintaining a Parkside Roof
Annual inspection on a Parkside property typically adds two to three seasons to the back end of a roof's service service life.

2Reading a Parkside Roof by Its Era
Second-storey additions in Parkside create a junction between old and new roof covering that needs correct flashing rather than sealant. Most roofs in Parkside fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their service life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later. Additions and conversions are common in Parkside, and the joint between the original roof covering and the newer section is where most leaks begin. Garage and patio roofs in Parkside are frequently lower slope than the house and need an entirely different system. This holds across San Francisco County. Many Parkside properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it gives out. We see it on Parkside roofs every week.

3Parkside Roofing and the Local Climate
As a rule, timber in Parkside roofs carries more moisture year-round, so deck condition matters more here than the age of the covering. On most jobs, ponding on a Parkside low-slope roof covering dries slowly in marine air, which gives the membrane a harder service life than the rain total suggests. Marine layer keeps Parkside roof coverings damp into late morning most of the year, and slow-drying surfaces favour moss on the shaded slopes. Flashing details matter more on a Parkside roof than the covering choice, given that salt finds the joint before it finds the field. This holds across San Francisco County. Shaded north slopes in Parkside hold moisture well past sunrise, which is why moss shows up there earliest and nowhere else. That is as true in Parkside as anywhere in San Francisco County.
