Is $5,800 to repair a problematic section of the roof a fair price?
Project Details
My asphalt and gravel roof is 21 years old and has started leaking during heavy rains. The roofer believes the leak is likely due to condensation from poorly isolated air ducts or a leak in the ducts, causing the roof to rot from the inside out. I am leaning towards replacing the roof completely due to its age. I am also wondering if roofers typically handle reconnecting or adding insulation to air ducts if that is the underlying issue.
