On most jobs, many Santa Clarita properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it fails.
Trimming back branches over a Santa Clarita roof removes the debris that holds moisture against the covering and shortens its life. Two visits a year keeps a Santa Clarita roof honest: clear the valleys and gutters before the rains, and inspect the flashings after the first heavy storm. This holds across Los Angeles County. Annual inspection on a Santa Clarita property typically adds two to three seasons to the back end of a roof's service service life. We see it on Santa Clarita roofs every week.
