Roofer
Several years ago we contacted a roofing firm to fix a leak in our roof because during certain rains water would come down into and through the bathroom ceiling. New flashings were needed, quote given and job excepted and complete. It took one 18 recent school leave and another older man 45 minutes. Great, I thought the job will come in under quoted price due the speed the job was done in. Alas no full price still charged because I was told I expected the quote. Very unethical. Anyway the reason I'm writing is yesterday the leak is back. Is there an honest and reliable person out there who could find the reason for my leak and " fix ". Or anyone that could recommend the same. Thank you in advance for any advice or help.
