In practice, the variable line on any Encinitas estimate is deck patch, and it should be priced per sheet in writing rather than hidden in an allowance.
Water readings matter on Encinitas low-slope roof coverings. Coating over wet insulation seals the problem in rather than solving it. Worth knowing before you sign anything. As a rule, we photograph every elevation on a Encinitas job so the written estimate can be read against what is actually up there. This holds across San Diego County. We check ventilation on every Encinitas project, since a roof that cannot breathe will not reach its rated service life.
