The job in Mission Hills is inspected as well as permitted — the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety signs off the finished assembly, not just the application. The permit record for a Mission Hills property is public, which is how a buyer's inspector checks the roof covering was done properly. On most jobs, permit requirements in Mission Hills run through the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety. Minor repairs as a rule do not need one; a tear-off and replacement does. That is as true in Mission Hills as anywhere in Los Angeles County. A permitted Mission Hills re-roof leaves a record that supports any later insurance claim on the same roof covering. It is the same story on most Mission Hills streets. Reroofing over existing layers in Mission Hills is limited by code, and the layer count is checked at inspection.
Moisture readings matter on Mission Hills low-slope roofs. Coating over wet insulation seals the issue in rather than solving it. A Mission Hills roof is inspected from the attic as well as the roof covering surface; half the evidence is underneath. We check ventilation on every Mission Hills job, because a roof covering that cannot breathe will not reach its rated life.
