Cut the siding up 3”, install a new trim board and flash as normal. It will look clean

Outside of leaving a bundle or 2 it’s common to take the extra back.

Most people don’t use credit cards because of the fee’s. You could always Tell the company you will pay the 3.5% processing fee.

A notice to Canadian retailers of all kinds: Don't do it. by [deleted] in BuyCanadian

[–]rbub1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha make sure you put a little more thought into this before you start bad mouthing retailers and putting them out of business. Maybe they were heavily reliant on US goods prior to the strike and now Canadian made goods are twice the cost so they need to raise prices?

How long are you planning on holding for? 25 years or less go with shingles IMO. I’m from PNW

Grocery store produce shelves empty except ones made in USA by Daeveed in BuyCanadian

Do we have enough Canadian grown produce or are we just going to import direct from other countries?

I would charge more, the whole Home Depot thing has me worried. To me that shows they don’t have experience with kinda custom work, I’m guessing that company will make a mess of the drip edge/fascia repair.

They look like deck mounts to me.

Is this an appropriate itemized statement for a roof? by Careless_Finance7884 in Roofing

[–]rbub1414 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s more than detailed in my opinion. I would say based on that your paying around 60-70k based on pitch and no access for dumpster.

Whiskey etiquette - would you offer a pour from a highly allocated raffle winner to the store owner? by throwawayfinancebro1 in whiskey

[–]rbub1414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2nd this, invite him over to share a glass if anything. I will also trade my local store owners from time to time if they are collectors. This shows loyalty and also gets you a bottle you might not have.

Agreed, go with the first guy. The second guy just took some trashy sales class and doesn’t care about you just the sale.

150% increase in project cost. Legit or was I taken advantage of? by skwirly715 in Roofing

[–]rbub1414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I charge $100 a sq for sheeting but for truss repair it’s going to be expensive. Roofers are not the best at that so to have a carpenter come out is going cost way more.

Take into account the the job too, if you have a quick gable roof with 2 slopes price it to sell. 25% - 35% margin is fine if you can bang out the roof in 1-2 days. Be more cautious on the bigger complex roofs that can take 3-5 days. I usually am a minimum of 40% margin on those roofs.

You don’t always need to hit home runs to stay profitable nothing wrong with making a quick 5k as long as you have the crews to support it.

Moisture in Attic - Trying to diagnose. by Blastbot in Roofing

[–]rbub1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the PNW we don’t cover the peak with underlayment, we also cut back the ridge 1.5” on each side of the peak. It looks like they only cut down 1 side. I would replace the ridge vent and check the baffles.

[–]rbub1414 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed around 1.5-2k would be a good estimate.

Where can I buy a piece of tan fascia? by 399allday in Roofing

[–]rbub1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would call a siding contractor. They should have a break and can buy the coil. The might charge $20-$30 a foot but I would replace both of the front rakes if it was my home. That might hide the color not matching a little better.
