Infrared scanning on a Dana Point commercial roof covering locates wet insulation that no visual inspection would find. We see it on Dana Point roofs every week. On most jobs, deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Dana Point roofs, since the sheathing often fails in advance of the shingle does. Flashing at the wall junction is checked first on any Dana Point inspection, because that is where nearly all ceiling stains originate. That is as true in Dana Point as anywhere in Orange County.
In practice, historic districts near Dana Point may restrict covering type and colour, which is worth confirming before materials are ordered. the Dana Point building department handles the paperwork for roofing work in Dana Point, and a licensed contractor pulls it as part of the job rather than leaving it to the owner. Permit requirements in Dana Point run through the Dana Point building department. Minor repairs usually do not need one; a tear-off and replacement does. This holds across Orange County.
