Boy am I there with you. Our story was a little more tragic. 2 years
after roofing our house, we found it was leaking and causing a huge
amount of dry-rot. Called the roofer to have him come look at it. He
didn't show at the arranged time so I called him again. Got a relative
on the phone the next time and found out that he had been killed in a
car accident a couple of days earlier. Just in case your wondering if
you was pulling a fast one, we looked up his obituary later in the week.
Getting our roof problems fixed cost us the equivalent of a couple of
fully restored TR3's! I learned that having a licensed/bonded contractor
do your work doesn't really add much value in situations such as this.

I hope you are able to get it resolved quickly and as in-expensive as
possible.

Mike
