My roof is 10 years old and seems to be in good shape except for the
vent
boots. I noticed that the rubber part of the boots has cracked. I had
a guy
to give me an estimate on replacing the boots. I have 4 vent boots(two
3"
and two 1.5"). The guy told me it would be around 250.00 labor and I
needed
the boots, 2 bundles of shingles and some silicon seal. He said it
would
take one whole day for this job.
I'm just wanting some opinions on this. I guess I didn't think it was
that
big of a job. I realize that one must pull up a few shingles to
replace the
boots. What really got me wondering was the fact that the guy said he
would
need two bundles of shingles.

Get up there and do it yourself. If you're scared of heights, now is the
time to confront that fear. If you have a question about how, post it.
Or you can bargin the guy down to a hundred bucks. Then he'll go up
there and make additional holes while he does the job.
