The cheapest Portola estimate usually leaves out the flashing, and that is where the next failure arrives.

A musty Portola attic after rain indicates water getting in somewhere above.

1Specifying a Portola Roof

In practice, moss on the shaded slope of a Portola roof covering holds moisture against the covering and shortens its life. Repeat stains in the same Portola ceiling after every storm point to flashing rather than to the field.
4Timing a Portola Roofing Job
On most jobs, weekend calls in Portola are usually leaks; weekday calls are usually planning. On most jobs, most Portola enquiries arrive after a ceiling stain appears, by which point the roof has generally been leaking for a while. Insurance timelines push Portola work into clusters, and that affects availability. As a rule, a Portola property with two roof covering types calls for two scopes, and a single lump sum hides which part is actually being done.
