Original decking on older Bonsall homes is commonly skip sheathing, which changes what can be laid over it. San Diego County is no different. Put simply, second-storey additions in Bonsall create a junction between old and new roof that needs done right flashing rather than sealant. Where Bonsall buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. Many Bonsall properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it lets go. On most jobs, most roof coverings in Bonsall fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later.
