re: Hurricane Ida damage question. Roofer asked to see the insurance estimate from my adjuster

quote:

There are only a handful of items to consider for materials cost and the calculations for plywood (if needed), underlayment, shingles, drip edge, and gutters are fricking simple.

yeah real simple.
there's only 1 underlayment to choose from, and one type of shingle to choose from and one type of gutter to choose from. They all cost the same amount, just pick whatever.


I'm sure everyone is an expert in roofing construction and knows exactly what they are looking at on the insurance adjustment so they can effectively tell the contractor exactly what is being covered.

If you're that paranoid about it, then make a copy of the estimate and black out the price, that way the contractor can actually do his job right and know exactly what he's being asked to do.
