Is $2,500 to replace the ridge cap on my roof a fair price?
Project Details
My ridge cap was destroyed by a storm and a racoon. I have a 2-story colonial house with a ridge about 65 feet long. I received a quote for $2500, but I'm unsure if it's a good price as the contractor mentioned it was their company's minimum job price. I plan to get more quotes.
