Fire-zone properties around Mission Viejo carry assembly requirements that the permit will inspect against.
A Mission Viejo property more often than not carries more than one roof type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. As a rule, roof covering age across Mission Viejo clusters around the decades when the area filled in, which means whole streets reach the end of their covering within a few years of each other. Second-storey additions in Mission Viejo create a junction between old and new roof that needs correct flashing rather than sealant.
