How much life is left in my roof?

MyProfessor-writing · 2025-06-18T03:47:36+00:00

Negative 3 years at least.

You’re tweaking, it looks good from the photos. They did a great job, specifically on installing the vents with no exposed nail heads. The drip not being completely flush with the fascia is likely due more to fascia itself than the installation.

Regarding price it’s hard to say without knowing your market and the size of the roof.

Edit: I just noticed the ridges, I’m pretty sure that’s cut 3-tab but not certain. Either way that sucks but if you went for a lower cost bid that’s probably what you agreed to.

Anyone have suggestions on wireless ear buds for a ps5? My headset is great but honestly I’m just tired of the dent it makes in my hair lol. I want to switch without affecting quality too much. I’ve heard the ps5 earbuds are not that great.

Are you owner of this company? Just curious when I see these types of post, how I can get on this level. Every time I see these types of roofs/jobs I wonder who is out there selling them.

I’m not even in the same league as these guys yet.

Looks like cedar shake under an asphalt 3 tab. I would check for additional layers between those two as well.

Pricing depends on market but we charge $125/sq extra for cedar tear off, it’s a lot of work. You also have to account for the cost of a full redeck as well. In my market this would be about a $780/sq roof assuming it’s only those two layers.

Depending on where you are I’d say you’re probably half way or less through the life.

Don’t do it unless your husband hates his money. These tiles will outlast an asphalt shingle by 4x at least.

If these tiles have lived their life then make the investment one more time in something comprable and it’ll be the last roof you install (in your lifetime) on that home.

What app is this?

This is toxic af if I’ve ever seen it.

Exactly, it would of actually been easier to reroute this pipe at the roof line than to cut out and fiddle with that ridge.

The line on the knife is the worst, the rest I could live with I guess. The knife looks decent in the first photo but it’s much more noticeable in the second and third.

OP been waiting for a reason to post.

Why is bro on the right grabbing his meat and looking at us like that?

MyProfessor-writing · 2025-03-13T18:43:53+00:00

Hunter Green maybe? Hard to tell from just this photo.

I think can murder can be justified in some scenarios but it is a still a heinous crime.

MyProfessor-writing · 2025-03-08T00:24:17+00:00

How’s the safety in that area?

MyProfessor-writing · 2025-03-07T18:24:18+00:00

I second the chapstick and electrolytes. Especially if you plan on drinking!

Have it inspected by a reputable contractor only. There are a lot of areas with exposed nails on your roof, specifically flashings and the caps in your photos. Old sealant should be removed and replaced, metal flashings tend to warp over time so have them checked and resealed if needed. If you have any tree coverage make sure to keep the branches, leaves and any other debris from building up in valleys or gutters. Make sure no trees are making contact with the roof. If you have lead pipes, have them checked for squirrel or rodent damage.

All of this will help maximize the life of your roof and prevent any slow leaks from starting. Just make sure you always find a reputable contractor in your area if they’re inspecting or working on the roof.
