Granule loss in the gutters is the earliest honest signal on a Ingleside shingle roof, and it shows up years before a ceiling stain does. That is as true in Ingleside as anywhere in San Francisco County. Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older Ingleside roof coverings, since the sheathing often lets go before the shingle does. We see it on Ingleside roofs every week. Put simply, a Ingleside roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof surface; half the evidence is underneath.
