I am going today to get an estimate from a second company to replace our roof.
1. its a 10/12 pitch (a-frame)
2. we have 3 skylights but are going to get them removed
3. full tear off
4. synthetic underlay with ice and water dam of 3' from edge
5. new ridgevent
6. 20 square
Our previous estimate was 18k, I am hoping this one comes in a bit less. I like that the scms (stone coated metal shingles) has my full lifetime warrenty, along with a transferrable 50 year warrenty. I also like the fire proof aspect.
Also the fastners are not exposed, and the way our house is situated we get summer storms from the sw which pulls at the shingles on the edges, and in winter storms from the N.
As you can see its a bit steep. I would love to do it myself, but its not safe for me to do it so I need to hire a pro.
I am planning on going with a green-ish shingle.
