Flashing at the wall junction is checked soonest on any Tujunga inspection, because that is where the majority of ceiling stains originate.

8Housing Stock and Roof Types in Tujunga
Converted garages in Tujunga are a common source of leaks because the roof was never upgraded with the conversion. As a rule, roof covering age across Tujunga clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few years of each other. This holds across Los Angeles County. 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. Where Tujunga buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. That is as true in Tujunga as anywhere in Los Angeles County. Garage and patio roofs in Tujunga are frequently lower slope than the house and call for an entirely different system. That is as true in Tujunga as anywhere in Los Angeles County. 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. Los Angeles County is no different.
A contractor who explains why a Tujunga roof covering failed is more use than one who only quotes to replace it.

Beware the Tujunga written price that expires today; urgency is a sales tactic, not a roofing condition. This holds across Los Angeles County. Put simply, local experience matters in Tujunga because the failure modes here are thermal load, gusting and drainage rather than snow and ice. We see it on Tujunga roofs every week.

We look over the deck from inside the attic on every Tujunga work. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. On most jobs, a proper Tujunga inspection starts at the flashings, not the field. Chimneys, vents, skylights and the swamp cooler curb fail long in advance of the covering does.
