Booking a Westminster job ahead of the first winter storm avoids the queue everyone else joins afterwards. A Westminster property with two roof types gets two scopes, because a single lump sum hides what is being done.

Composition shingle is the most common covering in Westminster and typically runs fifteen to twenty-five years here. Tile on a Westminster property outlives its underlayment by decades, and the underlayment is the part doing the waterproofing.

On a Westminster tile roof we lift field tiles in two or three places to date the underlayment, which takes about fifteen minutes. We look at the deck from inside the Westminster attic as well as walking the roof; half the evidence is underneath.

Repair makes sense on a Westminster roof with life left and one localised failure; beyond that it is money spent twice. The line that moves on a Westminster quote is deck repair, so it belongs in writing at a rate per sheet rather than as an allowance.
