Is $4,000 to repair four wood-rotted rafter tails using proper restoration techniques a fair price?
Project Details
There is wood rot in the tail rafters on my house. Someone previously attempted a repair using the wrong filler product not meant for outdoor use. I am looking for more affordable options as the current quote seems high for the four rafters needing work.
