OH Grannie...I hate hearing about the roof...we have to also have a new roof put on the house this year...probably sometime during the summer, or maybe even in September...need to have them do it, when we know for sure it will be dry for a few days...

I am not looking forward to having this done, its a mess, and will deplete the savings by quite a lot, but it needs to be done...

We have not started yet, looking for a roofer...I know Sears does it, and then there are the local places...hubby is talking about 'The Roof Doctor', as they seem to do a lot of roofs around this area...

And its also time to have the septic tank pumped out...eh gaads...lots of money going out the window...

Well, as long as I have enough money for a few dollies here and there, I should not complain...

We checked with Home Depot first.. We got their price and said, forget it. We finally found a local company with a price muuuuch lower than Home Depot. We got the best of the best for thousands of dollars less. So.. shop around.. Home Depot was using local people, they were just getting their cut too, and were giving us less for our money.. Way less.. You're right tho.. as clean and good as they try to be, roofing makes a mess.. Especially if you have to strip the roof too.. Ugh..

Call your InsuranceGuy and tell get him to evaluate all the storm damage. Let the insurance company foot the bill, less your deductible.
