Core samples settle the argument on a Jamul low-slope roof covering when water is suspected but not visible. Drone access on steep or fragile Jamul roofs gets the detail without anyone walking a covering that cannot take it.

As a rule, a Jamul inspection should end with a itemised report and photographs, not a verbal summary and a price. We check the deck from inside the attic on every Jamul project. Daylight through the sheathing tells you more than anything visible from the driveway. San Diego County is no different.
Two visits a year keeps a Jamul roof honest: clear the valleys and gutters in advance of the rains, and check the flashings after the soonest heavy storm. On most jobs, checking the attic after the first heavy rain in Jamul finds leaks while they are still stains rather than deterioration. Walking a Jamul tile roof damages it; inspection should be from the edge, a ladder or a drone.

Realistically, synthetic composite has become a credible option in Jamul where the look of slate or shake is wanted without the weight or the fire risk.

Underlayment choice is what decides it more than covering choice on a Jamul tile roof, since that is the layer doing the waterproofing. Put simply, standing seam on a Jamul property hides its fixings, which removes the most common leak path on exposed metal. It is the same story on most Jamul streets.
Repair makes sense on a Jamul roof with life left and a localised failure, and nowhere else.
