Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Westlake Village roofs, since the sheathing often fails ahead of the shingle does. Drone access on steep or fragile Westlake Village roofs gets the detail without anyone walking a covering that cannot take it. We check the deck from inside the attic on every Westlake Village project. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway.
