| Hi, we just had a our roof re-done; got the two older layers removed and had a new 30year Certainteed landmark installed.
I am not sure about the new drip edges installation. The locations where the edges overlap and the corners looks a bit shoddy with gaps. Is this reason for concern; should the contractor fix it before I pay him or am I just being overtly concerned?
Thanks |

| Not too concerned about ascetics that's for sure. The side pieces look like they have been overlapped too much. The corners were butt joined and not cut on a 45 degree to get a cleaner look. If you're not happy, let him know. They can be adjusted in place for a better look. Ron |

| "If you're not happy, let him know. They can be adjusted in place for a better look." True that. Not the work of a craftsman, but it will function without trouble. |

| The overlap could be fixed with one or two white pop rivets. The corners, on the other hand might require more work - can't see too much from the pic. |

| Very sloppy install. Looks like rank amateur. |
