| Hi all, we recently had a new roof put on the house at the shore. One of the neighbors called and said they found a piece of metal in our driveway which they thought was from our house. The roofer was long gone I have NO idea what it is - does anybody know? Thanks so much.

| Looks like either a vent cap or a chimney cap. |

| Probably a temporary cap left on site after removal. A permanent cap would be unlikely to have face screws. |

| I vote UFO and say that you should submit this to the government. |

| It looks like a pan one would have used to sift the sand on the beech and look for valuables. Oh yeah, it could be a vent cap as well. |

| I done three roofs. I never used any temporary caps. I would call the worker back and ask for an explanation. There could very well be a vent without a cap. Even though most caps dont have mounting locations on the top. |

| thank you all for the replies, even the wise guy. It turned out to belong to the attic fan and has been replaced. thanks! |
