Is $3,500 to repair the leaking roof section above the garage a fair price?
Project Details
The roof above my garage is leaking. I was a carpenter for a decade in a past life, but I'm not sure how to start this repair. The issue is pinpointed to a 90 degree corner where there is no flashing under the shingles; the sheet metal just butts up to the shingle.
