    The worst roofing job ever

    At first I was like "A 7 minute vid on roofing, why'd I watch that"... but it was pretty interesting. Apparently this is in a community of $million+ homes

    Probably one of those "You get what you pay for"... jobs.

    Really Crappy...our townhouse complex had a crappy job done on it - at least they started to. Thankfully one of the guys on the committee was an ex-roofer and inspected the rooves (roofs?) after about day 2. Stuff like this abounded...

    Told them to get the hell of the roof, they were fired, and reported them to the Better Business Bureau.

    He stated in the video that the homeowner paid something like $20000 for it. That's a lot of money. It should have bought an immaculate job.

    I feel for them too, when the vid opens and he just pans across, I thought man that's a cool asphalt shingle design. Once he gets in close he completely undresses it, but I can see how you'd pay that contractor's final cheque just looking at it from the ground and thinking it looked great. :s

    The homeowners probably should have had an inspector throughout the process from start to finish. I don't know what it would have cost, but they may not have to go through all the shit that they're going to have to go through to get it fixed.
