For example, a shingled roof with a 25 year warrantied shingle where the roof is 5 years old versus 20 years old.

The building needs a new shingle roof, and part of me thinks I should burn the office down.

The one story back section needed a new roof (metal was shot) and we got permission to replace it with shingles since it was clearly not the original roofing and no one knew what it had been. 

Quote from @Stephen Smith: Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: Quote from @Stephen Smith: Separately, a local roofing contractor was recently caught installing shingles on a BTC property in Cape Coral.  

In 2025 I activated my license and decided to hang my shingle with RE/MAX.

Let's assume you are tearing off the old roofing and doing all new shingles etc.

I live in an expensive market and have thought about trying to hang my own shingle for investors in my area.

One of them needs shingles.   

A sqare of quality shingles (10'x10') incl supplies costs about $150 and takes about an hour of labor to install.

We’re replacing “as-needed” repairs with lifecycle planning.Instead of waiting for failure, we replace:• Water heaters at year 10• HVAC condensers at year 12–15• Roofs proactively depending on shingle agePlanned replacements get better pricing than emergency replacements.7.
