Is $1,500 to reseal an upper deck a fair price?
Project Details
Three years ago, I hired a contractor for $29,000 in the PNW to waterproof an upper deck that was leaking into my house. Very recently, the leak resurfaced. The original company is now out of business. The project manager from that company started another company and resealed the deck for $1500. I performed a leak check after the resealing, and it is still leaking, specifically adjacent to the drain. I have not paid for this recent resealing yet.

The project manager from the original company, who has since started a new company, resealed the upper deck. The work was performed using the same Westcoat waterproofing product that was originally applied. This resealing was intended to address a resurfaced leak that was allowing water to enter the house. Following the resealing, a leak check was performed, and the deck is still leaking, specifically adjacent to the drain.
