my dad put my roof on at 76 years old.......he was a bad ass :0074 he passed at 82
I went with stormtex and I got 25 year 4 square I believe. My insurance covered it and they covered the deductible. It was $4500.00 once all said and done. I hope that answers your question but if not I'll ask tomorrow.
Oh I got you. I think it was either 25 or 28 squares and total would have been $6700. But they covered deductible so ultimately they got paid $4500
Are you and the rest of the Hardly boys on another big sleuth or are you just being a simpleton?
layin,I don`t know what you guys use down there in the southwest heat but a friend`s brother is a roofer and gave me a good deal about 12 years ago...we went with the architectural shingles and they seem to be holding up pretty well(still relatively new and I check the gutters several times every year)..we get very strong sun exposure......20 year guarantee or something(I think)?....
maybe they`re using different materials now......

I might have to consider getting back into this gig. This is thunderstorm season in the midwest and there's too much work to go around. Might go hang around the roofing and siding supply houses and find a good man to handle all the work for me and get back to writing contracts.
Plenty of mexicans in my town too. :SIB
Somebody has to plan and organize and get the jobs. Joey is too busy for that stress. :0003
Plenty of Joey's picking up materials everyday at the supply houses.
