Is $30,000 to replace the entire flat roof and shingles without insulation a fair price?

Project Details

Severe ice damming caused water intrusion at the rear of the house. A referral company initially quoted remediation but then claimed the entire flat roof was failing due to improper previous repairs and rotten wood. The homeowner felt pressured to sign quickly due to crew availability and had to borrow money from family to cover the costs.

Quote Details

Full roof replacement including remediation of rotten wood and masonry issues. - Strip and replace entire flat roof system - Remove multiple layers of old shingles - Replace rotten wood decking discovered during teardown - Address compromised masonry supporting the roof structure - Install new fascia, soffits, and gutters
