Flat and low-slope sections in Santa Fe Springs need a membrane or a coating system, not shingle laid at a pitch it was never designed for. Standing seam on a Santa Fe Springs property hides its fixings, which removes the most common leak path on exposed metal. Los Angeles County is no different. In practice, reclaimed tile can be matched on Santa Fe Springs heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new.
In practice, written scope, written price and a written warranty are the minimum on any Santa Fe Springs job. Check that the Santa Fe Springs crew doing the the project is employed by the company quoting it. Clean-up and magnetic nail sweep should be in the Santa Fe Springs contract, not assumed. It is the same story on most Santa Fe Springs streets.
