Is $20,000 to replace roof with Timberline shingles a fair price?
Project Details
I have entered a financing contract with this company, and after reading on here and other places, I've realized I am being vastly overcharged. I do have a notice to a right to recission in the contract and plan on utilizing it. I'm still in the grace period, but I'm concerned about how much pushback I should expect, especially since all the roofing company has done so far is sit in my dining room talking for 2 hours about the different GAF products they offered and an inspection. I just want an idea of how to do this beyond sending a notice to both the lender and this roofing company. For reference, I have another quote for $6k for something somewhat similar, and the sales guy from this company said I was probably getting cheaped out. I know I'm an idiot, but I caved to the high-pressure sales tactics this guy was utilizing (saying this shingle was a promo discount but could not guarantee it, so I had to make a decision today). I definitely plan on getting the cancellation through the rescind notice provided in the contract. The pushback is what I am most nervous about for sure, due to my state not having any extra provisions or protections on this type of thing.
