Storm Chasers HACK Job
See if you can pick out all the things very wrong here.
this homeowner is a relative and was taken by a guy bidding and doing jobs within 2 days of the storm. I wish I could have helped him out, but the guy must have been a good salesman. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: Storm Chasers HACK Job
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. ![]()

Re: Storm Chasers HACK Job
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.
