We photograph every elevation on a Santa Paula job so the documented estimate can be read against what is actually up there.

As a rule, flashing at the wall junction is checked soonest on any Santa Paula inspection, because that is where most ceiling stains originate. On most jobs, moisture readings matter on Santa Paula low-slope roofs. Coating over wet insulation seals the problem in rather than solving it.
