On most jobs, a Tujunga roof covering quoted without anyone looking in the attic is a quote based on half the information. That is as true in Tujunga as anywhere in Los Angeles County. A Tujunga quote that comes in far below the others is usually missing the flashing, the permit or the disposal. Deck replacement on a Tujunga project is unknown until the tear-off, which is why it belongs in the contract as a per-sheet rate.

9Choosing a Tujunga Roofing Contractor
Ask a Tujunga contractor for recent addresses nearby and go and look at the work from the street. Local references beat national brand badges on any Tujunga roofing decision. On most jobs, payment schedules on Tujunga the project should track progress, never run ahead of it. In practice, inspect that the Tujunga crew doing the work is employed by the company quoting it. Check the CSLB licence number before any Tujunga roofing company starts, and confirm liability cover and workers' compensation are current. It is the same story on most Tujunga streets. Beware the Tujunga quote that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. Los Angeles County is no different.
Put simply, a correct Tujunga inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long before the covering does. It is the same story on most Tujunga streets. We inspect the deck from inside the attic on every Tujunga job. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. Los Angeles County is no different. A Tujunga inspection should end with a written report and photographs, not a verbal summary and a price.
