A LOOK AT THE ROOF

**Eave and gutter line · Good.** 214 ft checked. Straight and secure. Light surface staining is cosmetic.

**Ridge and hip · Good.** 118 ft of ridge and 36 ft of hip. Cap shingles are seated tight along the full run.

**Valley · Good.** 4 valleys, 62 ft in all. Valley metal is clear and the shingles around it look sound.

**Field shingles · Fair.** All 44 squares walked. Normal wear for the age. 7 shingles flagged to re-secure.

**Chimney flashing · Watch.** One edge is lifting slightly. A small, common item that is easy to seal.

FALL SPECIAL$149.00

Need a new roof?
Maybe not.

Plenty of leaks trace back to one small spot: a failing chimney, a cracked vent boot, a few failed shingles. That is a repair, not a replacement. Fall is the time to find it and seal it up, before winter rain, ice and snow find it for you.

A NEW ROOF CAN RUN

$10,000 to $20,000 or more.
