Permit fees in Aliso Viejo are a small part of the project and a large part of what protects the property owner at resale. We see it on Aliso Viejo roofs every week. In practice, a permitted Aliso Viejo re-roof leaves a record that supports any later insurance claim on the same roof covering. Unpermitted roofing in Aliso Viejo surfaces at resale. the Aliso Viejo building department keeps the record, and a buyer's inspector knows to look for it.
Tile underlayment in Aliso Viejo dries out and goes brittle while the tile above it still looks new from the street. Orange County is no different. Realistically, dust and grit settle on Aliso Viejo roofs through the dry months and wash into the drainage the first time it rains. This holds across Orange County. Low-slope sections in Aliso Viejo hold heat worst, which is why coatings and reflective membranes pay for themselves here. This holds across Orange County.
