9Maintaining a Canoga Park Roof
On most jobs, walking a Canoga Park tile roof damages it; inspection should be from the edge, a ladder or a drone. Annual inspection on a Canoga Park property typically adds two to three years to the back end of a roof's service service life. Keeping a dated maintenance file on a Canoga Park property pays for itself the first time a claim is questioned. Los Angeles County is no different. Flashings at the chimney on an older Canoga Park house usually call for attention well in advance of the covering does. It is the same story on most Canoga Park streets. Two visits a year keeps a Canoga Park roof covering honest: clear the valleys and gutters ahead of the rains, and look over the flashings after the first heavy storm.
Streets in Canoga Park that were built out together tend to require roof coverings together, which is why one re-roof often brings three more on the same block. We see it on Canoga Park roofs every week. Solar arrays on Canoga Park roofs complicate replacement, and the panel age rarely matches the roof age. That is as true in Canoga Park as anywhere in Los Angeles County. As a rule, second-storey additions in Canoga Park create a junction between old and new roof covering that calls for proper flashing rather than sealant.
