A good North Hollywood roofer will talk you out of the project you do not require, which is the clearest signal there is.
We photograph every elevation on a North Hollywood job so the written estimate can be read against what is actually up there. Deck fastener pull-through is checked on older North Hollywood roofs, since the sheathing often gives out ahead of the shingle does. In practice, moisture readings matter on North Hollywood low-slope roofs. Coating over wet insulation seals the issue in rather than solving it. Los Angeles County is no different.
