I don't see anything a new roof couldn't fix. 
The idiot flat out stated by his work that the shingle manufacturer can't provide as good a warranty as HE can. So he voided theirs, and took it on himself. He obviously makes more money than GAF, Celotex, Timberline, and Elk combined.
See it all the time.

Yes. It looks like the siders left an 'outie' lip, then they added a drip-edge. At least, that was my take on the photos.
Like I said, they VOIDED any other warranty but their own. That, high nails, etc.
