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.

Quote Details

Repair work focused on the leaky area around the chimney, including: - Replacement of ice and water shield - Replacement of slate - Replacement of wood - Replacement of copper flashing

Repair a roof leak around the chimney

This quote is for repairing a roof leak around the chimney area. The issue is believed to be caused by faulty step flashing. - Repair Area: Around the chimney corners - Existing Damage: Water getting inside the attic, some wood rot - Proposed Cause: Step flashing issue - Included Work: Replacement of new shingles, wood, and step flashing in the affected area - Alternative Theory (Homeowner's Note): One roofer suggested water could be coming through corner boards of the siding, but I do not believe this is the case as other homes in the neighborhood are similar.
