As a rule, a maintenance record on a Seal Beach roof also helps at claim time, because it shows the failure was sudden rather than neglected. Two visits a year keeps a Seal Beach roof honest: clear the valleys and gutters in advance of the rains, and check the flashings after the first heavy storm. This holds across Orange County. Loose ridge caps on a Seal Beach roof are a five-minute fix in advance of the winds and a much larger one after. That is as true in Seal Beach as anywhere in Orange County.
