We have a new roof. The color is Burnt Sienna (dark brown), which is more interesting than gray or black. We ordered the best, thickest, most layered versions of everything. It cost $6,425. We also have a newly rebuilt chimney box. It had become water damaged because of improper flashing. It cost $1,625. I figure it was like having a small, 3-story shed built.

We felt like we got a good price, and we got very good service from the general contractor, Mike Rolling. We saw Mike at least 5 times before the job started, throughout the job, and at the end. He came highly recommended to us, and we highly recommend him for any general contract work. You can contact Mike at 770-935-0027. His company is Property Restoration Services, Inc.

Kathy made the Hispanic crew brownies for all of their hard work. Mike said that was better than a cash bonus.

Oh… we also have new turtle back vents, a ridge vent, and lead boot pipes. Mike said the boots will last a hundred years. Good boots.
