Original decking on older Tujunga homes is often skip sheathing, which changes what can be laid over it. Older Tujunga buildings frequently sit on their second or third covering, and the layer count is what decides it more than the age when planning the next one. As a rule, streets in Tujunga that were built out together tend to need roofs together, which is why one re-roof often brings three more on the same block. Put simply, a Tujunga property often carries more than one roof type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. Second-storey additions in Tujunga create a junction between old and new roof that needs correct flashing rather than sealant.
Put simply, annual inspection on a Tujunga property typically adds two to three years to the back end of a roof's service life. A Tujunga roof with working drainage outlasts an identical roof covering without it by years. Flashings at the chimney on an older Tujunga house as a rule require attention well ahead of the covering does.
