Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
Describe where water entry is observed and ask how the roof-to-chimney junction will be assessed. Request the proposed flashing details and the boundaries of any adjoining roof or masonry restoration.
What may be involved

- roof-compatible sealant
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
LOCAL RESEARCH / Daly City
Building history
The city boomed after the 1906 earthquake and was incorporated in 1911, so older post-earthquake housing is part of its built history.
Source ↗Local exposure
The air district’s 2011 regional climate description notes frequent cool, foggy summer weather in coastal Peninsula towns. This is regional outdoor context, not an assessment of a property’s equipment or indoor conditions.
Source ↗Planning your work
Daly City's Building Division states that a permit is required to alter, construct, convert, demolish, enlarge, erect, improve, move, remove or repair any building or structure in the city. That is a broad list, and it is the city's own wording rather than a judgement about a particular job. Describe the proposed work to the Building Division before it is scheduled. San Mateo County's building pages cover unincorporated territory and do not govern this city.
Source ↗Area-wide context does not establish the condition of your property or equipment.
