Oh Patti,.... I was waiting for your up date on the final job, I had a feeling it wasn't going to end well the way it was starting out......is there no nephews to do the fix for you?....I hope you don't have to attempt this.....I see nothing wrong with a woman doing a mans job but in this case it sounds like your going to climb a mountain in with no soft snow to break your fall....
Your right about some people not having any pride in their work, it's all about the money...what a shame....About 20 years ago I had a roofer come out, wanting to save money we went with an ad in the paper, (never again) I only gave him half the money and the other half was due when completed...He knocks on the door and expected me to hand over the money...no way, I needed to see the finished job...he was surprised by this...this was a 2 story house w/ a walk up attic, very high, I couldn't go up there because I was 8 months pregnant...I took binoculars out and looked it over...this idiot put the drip edge ON TOP of the shingles, it looked like I had a white stripe outlining the roof...I told him to fix it right or I won't pay...Boy was he mad, he took a step toward me and stopped and was yelling at me that it was right, needless to say he fixed it....that was a lesson learned....
