anything not specified wont be done, so they need to know exactly what you want, not do what ever they want, because you dont know what they "should" be doing (and ya i get it, thats the point of this thread)

That was kind of the point. I was well aware of what the framer I chose was doing (it was in his quote). I was just surprised by what all the one I didn’t choose included in his. Especially when it included things that other trades had included in their estimates as well (the flashing). I guess I thought I had a pretty good understanding of “responsibilities” and this guy just threw me off. If anything he has made me go back and reclarify what each persons quote entails. My siding guy quote included “all overhangs” which I took to mean cornice, rake, fascia, and soffit. Now I’m curious if he just meant soffit?
