San Gabriel sits in Los Angeles County and takes long dry heat, hard thermal cycling and rain that arrives in a few concentrated storms. In practice that means asphalt dries out and sealant pulls back from penetrations years before the field wears through.

We start at the flashings, check the deck from inside the attic, and photograph every elevation. On a San Gabriel property we pay particular attention to dried-out underlayment and attic temperature.

Yes. San Gabriel is about 23 miles from our Santa Monica yard, and we work it alongside Alhambra, San Marino and Rosemead on the same routes.
