At my mom’s place.
What’s irritating is 2 separate companies came out and provided somewhat inflated quotes. I used one of the companies to replace my roof in 2016. They did a good job and was paid a crazy amount by my insurance, the other is a close friend of the family, who told me later they just didn’t have time.
My mother was happy to pay but after getting these quotes, neither would return her calls.
I told her I would do the repairs, but she didn’t want me on her roof because she didn’t want me to get hurt.
This has been going on since the crazy Father’s Day wind storm.
Anyway, I found her shingles and was on the roof at 12:15 this afternoon. It was 90 degrees, but the roof was to hot to touch.
It took me 20-30 minutes to remove the damaged shingles and about 20 minutes to replace those with the new shingles.
My mother told me her quotes were $500. That’s crazy. It took me less than an hour, and I am quite the amateur.
A professional probably could have done it in 20 minutes.
I have a lot of respect for those who get on a roof everyday, but 1000 an hour is highway robbery.
