It don't pay to get a roofer there, then a framer and then a roofer back again. Framer can remove needed shingles if rafters or plywood needs to be repaired/replaced, install new fascia... then a roofer comes and does his thing with the roof, then the gutters.
I guess that is just opinion and contingent upon your crews. For me it would be a lot cheaper to have it ready to frame for the framers and the trash in the roofers dump trailer.

Also my roofer and gutter guys are not the same so that would play into it I suppose.
 
I don't see how it could possibly be cheaper,OR faster, Or better to get a roofer,then a framer,then a roofer,then a gutter guy in there------------------

We would just do the whole thing pretty much section by section as we went along

but then-that's why I won't work as a sub.

You just need a framer and a roofer.

Don't get salty because roofers get less than framers...

Its just a different mindset. You section by section, me stages of completion.
 
I do a lot of this crap:sad:


..............................It's called a biff board:blink:
.........Something like a 2X4:whistling and just start biffffing on it,,,,,,,The harder you bifffher the faster she comes off:jester: I use a 4" grinder for the nails from the top of the sheathing to the top of the board.
...............Grind em off............

i HIGHLY doubt that the framers would be earning more money than we would
and I still haven't seen any reason why any competent roofing company couldn't do the entire thing---MUCH more efficiently than your plan

but hey- if you want to work in-efficiently and give money away- that's your affair, LOL
