My neighbor across the street developed a small leak in the ridge of
the roof over the garage. It is really raining right now.

What did she do? Called a "contractor" who immediately commence to tear
off the roof in the rain. You know water is getting into the
insulation. My goodness, just because someone has a license doesn't
mean they know what they are doing.

I told my employee that I would put on another layer of shingles on the
small section in question. It looks as if they are going for big bucks
by tearing off IN THE RAIN and taking several days at the house. It's
about 100 square feet.

Don't people think? Doesn't the owner know what's going on? Do these
bozos really think they are doing the right thing?

A license to me means the holder pays a special price to the state each
year. That's all it means. You had better know the job before you
tangle up with anyone.
