Re: Roofing

You can't be assured that they will pay for the water damage. You simply have to request/demand that they pay (hopefully with some supporting documentation regarding cost of the damage). And if they don't either get a lawyer to send a demand letter or file suit.

You may not be obligated to pay for the roofing job if they breached your agreement by failing to protect against rain depending on the circumstances.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
