New Roof and gutters (finally)

Last September the tenants that bailed on me called to announce their ceiling was collapsing. Denver had been in a drought for a year when ! bought the place and that continued until mid-2004. We had just had a couple days of torrential downpours and there was a leak in one of the troughs in the roof. Water dripped through and settled on top of the ceiling until it finally caved in that corner. ! had to roofers come out to do an estimate and patch the hole. There were 3 layers already so they all had to be stripped off. Another 2 days of labor to pay for and a big mess to clean up later. That's the way my luck goes. Everything ! do has to be as difficult and expensive as possible. 4 months later they finally show up to do the work. They told me Wednesday they should be done Saturday. They finished Friday. The Friday after that Saturday. $9,060. That includes new gutters and downspouts. It looks good. The shingles should be good for 20 years.
