Composition shingle is the most common covering in Simi Valley and the cheapest to replace, but it is also the earliest to show UV damage. Metal has grown in Simi Valley for its lifespan and reflectivity, though the fixing system has to allow for movement or the panels telegraph every fastener. TPO and modified bitumen both work on Simi Valley low-slope roofs, and the choice usually comes down to detailing rather than the sheet. We see it on Simi Valley roofs every week.
