We are now in the process of contacting the POA and starting a class action suit against OC. If OC has refused to pay labor costs for your defective roof please send me a PM.
Correct,,, how can they NOW say they will not pay for labor. If they've done so many previous roofs and paid for everything, how can they now say they won't pay for labor. I'll ask all my neighbors, they've had there's done and I'll find out if any were told this same thing.

I got my claim # back in June but I kept getting put off by OC and the roofer about getting my shingles inspected. At that time, they were paying for everything. I think a class action suit is a good idea since I think now they are playing games.

I called the roofing company again 2 weeks ago to ask when they will inspect my shingles, and they referred me back to OC saying that Owens will now be doing all the inspecting. When I called Owens, they said they will be the only ones inspecting and eluded to the fact that perhaps only some shingles on a roof need to be replaced, not all, and they will be the judges of that from now on.

This has turned out to be a huge issue and we're not getting straight answers. POA meeting, here I come.
