Put simply, two visits a year keeps a Rolling Hills Estates roof honest: clear the valleys and gutters before the rains, and inspect the flashings once past the first heavy storm.
Streets in Rolling Hills Estates that were built out together tend to require roofs together, which is why one re-roof frequently brings three more on the same block. Garage and patio roofs in Rolling Hills Estates are frequently lower slope than the house and need an entirely different system. Second-storey additions in Rolling Hills Estates create a junction between old and new roof that needs proper flashing rather than sealant.
