Is it a job well done? I didn’t install the top most shingle as the one below is tucked into the one above. It should keep the rain out until the next hurricane or till I pay a professional roofer to do it over in a month or two. My cost was $90 for the three bundles of shingles; I used ½ of them and about $40 for tools and misc. supplies.
While I was a part-time, summer job roofer many years ago, this will be my last roofing job. And thanks to all the neighbors for the help and prayers my roof should not leak for a while.
