Do these shingles look cheap to you?

Most asphalt shingles have a warrantee of 20 years, and many roofs need to be replaced in 20-25 years.

I am looking at a potential flip in baltimore marylandThe comps in the area run from about 150k-190k depending on quality of the finishes and the home is available for about 20kthe major concern is that the home has asbestos shingle siding...Does anyone have any estimates about cost of remediation for that in maryland?

I am looking to get the shingles replaced and there are a few spots where the wood underneath needs to be torn out and replaced.

(roof- composition shingle on ranch, a/c heatpump needs to be installed with current duct work from furance, 1.5 jack and jill bath, kitchen, 2 bedrooms , its defiantly outdated!

As a lawyer your time is worth a lot more than you will pay yourself for roofing :)And I sympathize, I won’t even tell you about the stolen copper...the staggeringly drunk guy working 60 feet upGet 3 bids, make sure you compare apples to apples (quality of shingles, gutters etc) and also think about speed.

Roofer installed a third layer of shingles over two existing layers.

There were probably a half dozen shingles missing.

Splitting profits is far more viable than running out of money & having to sell.Insurance is tough to get if the roof needs obvious repairs & conventional financing is even more difficult unless the repairs are completed or you have the cash in escrow.We just did a roof on an older home (Insurance requirement) & when we got into it we had 3 layers of shingles & some of the rafters were on 34" centers???.

They used the shingle made from a company called IKO.
