We photograph every elevation on a Shadow Hills job so the written estimate can be read against what is actually up there. Granule loss in the gutters is the earliest honest signal on a Shadow Hills shingle roof, and it shows up seasons in advance of a ceiling stain does. As a rule, core samples settle the argument on a Shadow Hills low-slope roof covering when water is suspected but not visible.
