2Material Options for Ramona Roofs

Reclaimed tile can be matched on Ramona heritage roofs, but the underlayment beneath it should always be new. That is as true in Ramona as anywhere in San Diego County. Coatings suit Ramona buildings with a sound deck and a tired surface — they buy years, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation. On most jobs, lightweight tile gives Ramona homeowners the look without the structural upgrade older framing would otherwise require.

3Reading a Ramona Roof by Its Era

On most jobs, where Ramona buildings have been re-roofed twice, the next work is a tear-off regardless of what the owner would prefer. Put simply, multi-unit buildings in Ramona as a rule need a low-slope system and a maintenance plan rather than a one-off make good. On most jobs, many Ramona properties carry a covering chosen for price rather than climate, and it shows in how early it gives out. Converted garages in Ramona are a common source of leaks because the roof was never upgraded with the conversion. As a rule, older Ramona buildings frequently sit on their second or third covering, and the layer count counts more than the age when planning the next one.

Drainage on Ramona properties has to handle runoff from above as well as rainfall on the roof covering itself.
