ya they gave me what i think was a fair price. my mom called home depot for a estimate… they said $10,000 to do it. i was furious and laughing all at the same time

when they carry the shingles to the top of the roof and place them down, they need a place to rest them so they dont fall off the roof. so they lay them over the crown of the house. so if they were put on the crown of the house, upside down in the pack, it would bend them up alittle as well

ya idk they carried them all up there a lot of slamming. thing is a conveyor belt came 2 days ago with all of the shingles and just left them in my drive way… idk why he didnt put them on the belt to put them on the roof.

to much weight on the top of the roof, plus then they would sit in an arch for to long before being laid down flat. would make them look even worse than they do now
