Lifting a few tiles in two or three places is the only way to date the underlayment on a Spring Valley tile roof, and it takes fifteen minutes. Worth knowing before you sign anything. Photographs with dates are part of every Spring Valley inspection, because an undocumented claim gets read as wear and tear by any adjuster.
