Emergency work in Duarte costs more than planned work, for the obvious reason that nobody chose the timing. We inspect roofs in Duarte free of charge and put the findings in writing before any price is discussed.

Attic ventilation drives covering life in Duarte as much as the weather above the roof does. Duarte takes its rain in short heavy bursts, so drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once.

A Duarte inspection starts at the flashings — chimney, vents, skylights — because they fail long before the field does. On a Duarte tile roof we lift field tiles in two or three places to date the underlayment, which takes about fifteen minutes.

Most Duarte claims that fail do so because the damage was patched or cleared before anyone photographed it. Insurance work in Duarte turns on documentation taken before anything is touched or tarped.

Metal suits many Duarte roofs for lifespan and reflectivity, provided the fixing system allows for movement. Low-slope sections on Duarte buildings need a membrane or coating system rather than shingle laid flatter than it is rated for.
