Clean-up and magnetic nail sweep should be in the Reseda contract, not assumed. Check that the Reseda crew doing the work is employed by the company quoting it. That is as true in Reseda as anywhere in Los Angeles County. Check the CSLB licence number before any Reseda contractor starts, and confirm liability cover and workers' compensation are current. We see it on Reseda roofs every week. Two warranties apply on Reseda the job: the manufacturer's on the material and the installer's on the workmanship. Ask for both.
Seasonal demand in Reseda affects scheduling more than price, but booking ahead of the rains helps both. On most jobs, low-priced Reseda quotes usually skip the flashing. That is where the money is saved and where the next leak arrives. That is as true in Reseda as anywhere in Los Angeles County. A Reseda estimate worth reading itemises tear-off, disposal, underlayment, covering, flashing, permit and clean-up separately.
