7k?

10k?


How big is the ROOF? And by "new roof" do you just mean
re-shingling? DO you want a tear-off, or a second layer?
Do you expect to need repair of the decking? Is it
a simple gable roof with few or no penetrations, or
some dumb-ass pseudo-victorian with turrets, spires,
dormers and eyebrow windows all over creation.
Are you within 2 miles of a roofing supply warehouse,
or does the roofer have to cart his supplies and
equipment through 12 miles of jungle on the back of
a donkey? Are you in a shoreline protection zone
that requires 8 million dollars worth of permit
fees and paperwork before you're even allowed to start?
Are you in the Greater LA metropolitan Area,
or Potsdam?


I'd guess closer to the 10,000 than the 7, in the
absence of any more information.
