Sheet Metal Roofing Team serves California, including the Fresno and Sacramento metro areas. The state experiences a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, but also faces risks of wildfires and earthquakes that can affect roofing.
California's climate, with its hot summers and wet winters, can cause expansion and contraction cycles that stress clay roof tiles. Wildfire risks necessitate fire-resistant roofing materials, and seismic activity can lead to tile displacement. We inspect clay tile roofs for cracks, chips, and signs of wear from thermal cycling or seismic events. Our assessment includes checking the integrity of flashing and the underlayment to ensure protection against water intrusion and other potential damage.
