Beware the Reseda quote that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. Local references beat national brand badges on any Reseda roofing decision. Realistically, two warranties apply on Reseda work: the manufacturer's on the material and the installer's on the workmanship. Ask for both. Ask any Reseda roofer what happens if the deck is worse than expected, and get the answer before the covering comes off.
Denied Reseda claims are often reopened successfully when correct documentation is supplied the second time. Realistically, policies covering Reseda properties generally pay for sudden damage and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly. Emergency tarping on a Reseda roof is normally covered, and receipts should be kept for it.
