Hello BARF,
Looking for a sanity check. I've been trying to find a roofer to do some work on my house.
I've called/emailed a ton of people. Two showed up to estimate. Got one estimate back then they vanished, no returned calls.
Either everyone's crazy busy due to previous season's rain or my job has red flags on it.
Or both. I recognize my job is smaller and possibly tricky. House is on a slope, access is hard. Fully expect that to raise the price.
Here's the work:
- Re-roof detached 2 car garage. Has 30yo tar/gravel. Want to strip it, add some insulation, then either IB roof systems or torchdown.
- Replace large skylight on the main house. ~75" square.
- Small stuff like put a better cap on a vent, fix one downspout on the garage.
- Clean & check over my gutters and drains.
Would appreciate advice on how to find someone to do this work or how I might be screwing up in my search. Or not and I gotta just wait until the backlog clears.
Thanks for reading
