Smooth Talkers

I let the contractor in to do a bid on the roof.  That was my first mistake.  And so they did the look see and the estimate.  Wow.  $18,000.  Then they knocked it down to $16,000.  Well I signed and then thought about it overnight.  Cancelled this morning.
IF I was for sure going to live here for the next twenty years it might be worthwhile.  They did a good job in explaining why they are high.  However I only expect to be here for a short time....like three years max.
So I need to go up in the attic and see if I see what they showed me in pictures.  And if I do....leakage and the start of some mold problems...then I need to call some other roofers and get a normal roof installed.
But ohhhh the accent on the first guy.  I could just sit and listen to him talk.  I am nothing if not completely smitten by accents.
