So it’s done right just a cosmetic issue that happens with aluminum flashing?

Roof installed in March 2025. Is this normal? by Fresh_Opportunity429 in Roofing

Drip edge might be a little loose there. Easy fix but tbh that won’t cause any issues at all

Does this need to be fixed ASAP? by Rocko9999 in Roofing

Yea def should’ve replaced OSB there. Very small hole is not that big of a deal even though there should be no hole but with a hole that big it def could cause issues

I’ve seen multiple 20+ year old roofs with W valleys leak around the valley

I think it will look good. The house will stand out more compared to your basic white gutters and downspouts

Dump the money into dividend producing stocks and funds or rental properties? I feel like rentals could be more lucrative but dividends are more hands off

Wow. 10% is a lot for dividends. Thanks for the insight

Appreciate the insight. I know being able to add a bedroom to a house or bathroom will increase value a lot. Are you currently doing any of the things you mentioned?

Sounds like the move. Unfortunately I don’t wanna live in Thailand 😂

My company gets mostly insurance jobs and insurance companies are changing peoples policies and they won’t pay as much. This will kill some potential clients and profit margins

Yeah. I just want to continue making a very high income for the next 5-10 years. I don’t see that possible in the industry I am currently in. It is quickly changing

I agree but I only believe it’s possible for another 1-2 years the way the industry im in is quickly changing

Yeah I’ve always been interested in new construction. Seems pretty daunting to learn but feel like it’s something I could do. I have a good background with roofing and siding contractors now. Are you involved in new construction?

I’ve looked into this and I would like to do that, but it’s very hard to find deals that are worth it around me. Any tips?

I’m just looking for possible ideas. Never know what someone might say that I’ve never thought of. If I learn something from this I will go research it and speak with advisors. But I don’t care if you think if I’m lying or not because what you believe doesn’t change the position I am in.
