I'm no stranger to roofing have repaired many myself .
At my age it's best I stay off a roof.
I've gotten quotes from $600 to $1000 dollars .
I have no problem paying a fair price but this storm is a cash cow for contractors taking advatage of the current situation.
If anyone knows of a reputable handyman that does smaller roof repair It would be greatly appreciated
I once hired a handyman to do some work and he did a bad job. I didn't realize that I should have hired a plumber instead of a handyman. A plumber would have cost more. It is a looooong story and I I'll keep it short but I ended up paying approximately $900 more than if I had hired a plumber in the first place. I didn't know what I didn't know. For what it's worth that's my 2 cents.

Covenant Roofing has done work for us in the past and I was very happy with their service and work ethic. In case you are interested their phone number is (352) 314-3625.
