Loose ridge caps on a Dana Point roof are a five-minute fix before the winds and a much larger one following.
Infrared scanning on a Dana Point commercial roof locates wet insulation that no visual inspection would find. Lifting a few tiles in two or three places is the only way to date the underlayment on a Dana Point tile roof covering, and it takes fifteen minutes. Photographs with dates are part of every Dana Point inspection, since an undocumented claim gets read as wear and tear by any adjuster.
