Flashing at the wall junction is checked earliest on any Laguna Niguel inspection, since that is where nearly all ceiling stains originate. Damp readings matter on Laguna Niguel low-slope roofs. Coating over wet insulation seals the problem in rather than solving it.
Where Laguna Niguel buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next work is a tear-off regardless of what the property owner would prefer. As a rule, streets in Laguna Niguel that were built out together tend to require roofs together, which is why one re-roof often brings three more on the same block. Most roofs in Laguna Niguel fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later.
