Flashings at the chimney on an older Ramona house usually need attention well in advance of the covering does.

Deck replacement on a Ramona job is unknown until the tear-off, which is why it belongs in the contract as a per-sheet rate.
4Material Options for Ramona Roofs
Composition shingle is the most common covering in Ramona and the cheapest to replace, but it is also the first to show UV damage. TPO and modified bitumen both work on Ramona low-slope roofs, and the choice as a rule comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. This holds across San Diego County. Reclaimed tile can be matched on Ramona heritage roof coverings, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new. That is as true in Ramona as anywhere in San Diego County.

Converted garages in Ramona are a common source of leaks because the roof was never upgraded with the conversion. A Ramona property often carries more than one roof covering type — a pitched main house in one material and a flatter garage or addition in another. Where Ramona buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next job is a tear-off regardless of what the homeowner would prefer. In practice, the majority of roofs in Ramona fall into three groups: original coverings near the end of their service life, replacements from the last two decades, and low-slope sections added later.
