A Dana Point roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof surface; half the evidence is underneath. Core samples settle the argument on a Dana Point low-slope roof when water is suspected but not visible.
Roof age across Dana Point clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few years of each other. A Dana Point property often carries more than one roof covering type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. Second-storey additions in Dana Point create a junction between old and new roof covering that needs proper flashing rather than sealant.
