As a rule, local experience is what decides it in Walnut because the failure modes here are heat, wind and drainage rather than snow and ice.
Supplements are normal on Walnut claims once the covering is off and the deck is visible, and they should be raised with evidence rather than argued later.

In practice, warranty terms affect the real cost of a Walnut roof covering more than the headline figure does.
