Nearly all Winter Gardens roofs that fail early fail at a penetration someone could have resealed for a few hundred dollars. San Diego County is no different.

Worth knowing before you sign anything. On most jobs, original decking on older Winter Gardens homes is more often than not skip sheathing, which changes what can be laid over it.
