Sealant is the first casualty in Rolling Hills; it shrinks, cracks and pulls away from every penetration within a few seasons. On most jobs, 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. 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.

Clean-up and magnetic nail sweep should be in the Rolling Hills contract, not assumed.
Gusting and storm deterioration on a Rolling Hills roof is covered where it is documented; wear is not covered anywhere.

Put simply, coatings suit Rolling Hills buildings with a in good order deck and a tired surface — they buy years, but they do not fix water already trapped in the insulation. Realistically, cool-rated coverings are worth specifying in Rolling Hills even where code does not require them. Synthetic composite has become a credible option in Rolling Hills where the look of slate or shake is wanted without the weight or the fire risk. It is the same story on most Rolling Hills streets.
