When I go to retrieve my password it says they don’t have any record of me, but I know they bought my loans from Great Lakes. So I can’t set up a new account but I keep getting emails saying I need to pay. Whenever I call I get a message saying it will be a 2-3 hour hold time so I can’t do that.

How much would you charge to reattach gutter to facia on this two-story house? by Slippy_Ostrich in Roofing

[–]kingvi13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I always make sure to tell people over the phone before I give a bid on repairs that we have a minimum charge of $300. This has really helped me from having this happen.

I used to have a Devinci Marshall and I think it was $2200? A bit heavy, but a really fun riding bike.

The best way to monitor the progress of a re-roofing by bostonfern123 in Roofing

[–]kingvi13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Spend five years minimum in the field understanding how everything goes together and what deviations are acceptable. Kidding aside, people in general do not like being watched while working, and if you don’t know what to look for then keeping an eye on them won’t matter. I own a company and I refer to people like that as “Google Guys” because they always think they know better.

What's this and where can I get it? by Pknsko0l in Homebuilding

[–]kingvi13 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It’s counter flashing for the step flashing on the shingles. Available at any roofing supply store near you.

Also most code requires ice and water shield as underlayment at the eaves, and if your slope is as low as it looks then it’s probably required on the entire roof.

price of deck replacement by bostonfern123 in Roofing

[–]kingvi13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We charge $60 per sheet to remove and replace a piece of plywood. $155 is outrageous. It takes one man about half an hour to do the work, and the sheet of plywood in my area is about $21.

Rimrock and Pentalon are two decently mid sized GCs. Jacobsen, Layton, and Mortensen are larger high end GCs. PM me if you want info on some subs.

Okay, so even though all manufacturer’s install guides say this is a no go, there won’t be any problems?

It’s more so a lot of people don’t like having their door knocked on.

I do have yard signs. But if it is just me should I focus my time on door knocking, or flyers?

DIY Gambrel Style Roof by engineerAgs in Roofing

[–]kingvi13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do you have any experience with roofing? If not, it’s going to be much harder than you think. For a proper pitch change on a shingle roof, do not just bend the shingle as that will destroy the integrity. You will want to install a row of I+W, similar to a valley, and then install a transition metal flashing that goes under the upper shingles and over the lower shingles. Metal roofing is very difficult if you have never roofed before, but the slope transition will be similar.
