That is as true in Bonsall as anywhere in San Diego County. Written scope, written price and a written warranty are the minimum on any Bonsall job.
A permitted Bonsall re-roof leaves a record that supports any later insurance claim on the same roof. The permit record for a Bonsall property is public, which is how a buyer's inspector checks the roof was done properly. As a rule, the county or city building department covering Bonsall handles the paperwork for roofing work in Bonsall, and a licensed roofer pulls it as part of the project rather than leaving it to the owner.
