1What to Watch For in Signal Hill

Cracked tile on a Signal Hill roof is cosmetic; the paper beneath it is not. Moss on the shaded slope of a Signal Hill roof holds moisture against the covering and shortens its life. In practice, a musty Signal Hill attic after rain indicates water getting in somewhere above. Daylight visible through the deck from inside a Signal Hill attic is a structural issue, not a covering issue.

Lifted shingle tabs after a Signal Hill wind event are the start of a progressive failure. In practice, interior paint bubbling on a Signal Hill ceiling is a late signal, not an early one. Sagging between rafters on a Signal Hill roof points at the deck rather than the covering.

2Material Decisions in Signal Hill

Reflective coverings lower attic temperature measurably on a Signal Hill property and ease the cooling load. Insulation upgrades on a Signal Hill re-roof are cheapest while the deck is open. Coating a Signal Hill roof covering only works where the substrate is sound and dry. On most jobs, ventilation on a Signal Hill roof affects covering life as much as the covering itself does.

4The Signal Hill Job, Start to Finish

In practice, underlayment goes down the same day the deck is open on Signal Hill jobs; nothing is left exposed overnight.

Penetration boots on Signal Hill roofs are replaced as a matter of course during a re-roof.

Material is delivered to Signal Hill sites the day it is needed to keep the driveway clear. Photographs are taken at each stage on Signal Hill jobs so the owner sees what was covered up.

On most jobs, synthetic slate suits Signal Hill framing that cannot carry the real thing.
