Additions and conversions are common in La Habra, and the joint between the original roof and the newer section is where the majority of leaks begin. It is the same story on most La Habra streets.
La Habra gets its rain in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. Thermal cycling does the harm in La Habra — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. Expansion and contraction loosens fixings on La Habra roof coverings long before the material itself gives out.
