less my $250 deductible....
The gang swarmed my house at 07:33 today -- as my wife was rolling down the driveway.
Met the foreman, introductions all around....several of us spoke English..."rain due at @ 15:00. A problem?"
"No sir!"
I got out of their way.
By 08:25 the tear-off was completed and underlayment, ice-guard and new drip-edge commenced.
Small break as the boys took their truck down the block to jump start fellow countrymen's truck on a mowing job
These guys were off the roof, had finished their very thorough clean-up and were playing with their dog by 11:30.
Daughter and I moved everything back to the porch, and were enjoying lunch on the patio by 13:00hrs!
The foreman said they were off to Columbus (45miles distant) to do another house.
Felt bad - because I thought the rain forecast was going to postpone the job - I hadn't laid in enough cash to tip a group this large - 8.. I'll send a check - but it's not the same as collecting it on the job site after a hot morning in the direct sun on dark shingles.
The men did very good work.

PS: they came with a stack of fresh panels if I'd needed them - but I didn't.
