Is $3,000 to repair a slate roof around the chimney a fair price?
Project Details
My house has questionable repairs. I noticed a leak recently. I am in the process of finding out different prices and have received two wildly different prices and estimates for the work needed. I am wondering if this price is reasonable, what I should look for in the estimate, and how I should approach this.
