Rolling Hills gets its rainfall in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. We see it on Rolling Hills roofs every week. Summer high temperatures is the main ageing force on a Rolling Hills roof. Surface temperatures run far above the air reading, day after day, for months. Afternoon sun on a west-facing Rolling Hills slope ages that side years ahead of the rest of the roof. Los Angeles County is no different.
