On cable everything seems so simple, from kindle hacking to catching criminals, from painting to skydiving, when you watch things on TV it feels like you could do them just as well, however is that just me, or do you do that too? I have been watching a lot of house renovation shows, or programs about apartment flipping, and I started to think it was something I could handle.
It only took one day of actual renovation labor before I realized I was in over my head.
I was pretty handy around the house, but I wasn’t a plumber, an A/C maintenance tech, an electrician, or a roofing company, however what seemed to be so simple on cable was virtually impossible in reality. I got up on top of the apartment and started looking around for weak spots or indentations in the roofing, to indicate harm underneath. I found more problems with the roofing than I could have ever imagined. I had to be careful with every step I took, because the roof was so badly in need of extensive repairs. I did a little online research, and found three odd roofing companys in my section that handled residential roofs, and only two of them provided a free price quote for roof updatement, so those were the two I made appointments with. One of these roofing companies was a family owned and operated business, with a man, his partner, and their three sons. I chose this family-run roofing supplier because they seemed eager to work, and they provided me a great price estimate.
