Why Avalon roofs fail the way they do
Houses sit on more land than they would in a city, which usually means more roof area per house than the averages assume. Sitting around 26 miles back from the water softens the salt but not the onshore weather. With a population near 3,267, Avalon covers about a square mile of Los Angeles County.
What actually takes roofs out here is the autumn offshore winds, which find anything already loose. Dry offshore wind lifts material that damp coastal air had been holding down. Most wind losses here happen on a handful of nights a year.
Behind it: morning fog that sits on the roof until mid-morning. Nothing dramatic happens. A slope stays damp most mornings for thirty years, and eventually that is enough.
None of which is unusual for a roofer who works here every week. It is only unusual to a crew who does not.
