Is $20,000 to replace the entire roof and remove chimney a fair price?
Project Details

Was told the roof was replaced in 2022, but no records exist and it is currently leaking, particularly around the chimney. Roofers noted exposed nails, unsealed vents, and attic water damage suggesting leaks for over a year.
