I was hired to do a job by an investor, he asked me to give him a great price,I told him if he wanted a great price for his roof replacement I would have to use economy shingles that were a cheaper price and had no warranty, he agreed on the price and job, 2-1/2 yrs later I get a phone call in the early spring and his roof is leaking very badly,the ceilings are damaged and falling down,the shingles never sealed down properly in the warm weather and were defective, the place that sold them to me they have never had any problems out of their material,but insisted they had no warranty,It was a mistake buying them,I had to hire an attorney and also ended up paying the homeowner the money back he paid me,his insurance paid the damages.

$11,000 seems a little high to me for a low-pitch, one-story roof, even if re-sheathing. If the soffits, facing boards and gutter were supposed to be included, that brings the $11,000 to "not enough". But unless that house has a LOT More roof that wasn't shown, the $20,00 to have it redone properly seems exorbitant.

Another scam people need to avoid. Those people who do rooftop coatings. They are an absolute rip-off and do nothing more than temporarily brighten up the color of your roof. Had a neighbor a few years ago who towed a little trailer with a sprayer attached. For 1,000 he would go on your roof and spray a coating of tar. He claimed it would penetrate the shingles and make them like new 😂😂😂. He said it would seal any leaks and give you at least another 10 years of life in your roof. My poor neighbor fell for his scam. Watching the guy work, he diluted the tar to almost water like. He sprayed a very thin coat that was running down the shingles. It was nothing more than a cheap krylon paint job 😂. The guy was even featured on scam alerts with the local news. He just suddenly packed up and moved out one weekend. Within six months, the pretty color faded away.

This is why I'm afraid to hire a young white guy. Unlike illegal immigrants, when the work gets rough the white man could get by working at gas station making half if not less. OK OK now i know there are some badass white workers out there too so don't get crying bout it if you're one of them but I'm just saying, its happen to me too many times thats all.
