Just first quote but was shocking considering I had $25K - $30K in my head somehow.

Numerous neighbors replaced roofs over past few years. I planning on talking to as many as I can.
$43K for only the roof and doesn't cover damages? That seems high and odd. Don't get me wrong I deal primarily with industrial type projects and I'm learning about the costs of home ownership as I go. I have a friend that does residential remodels. A guy that works for him is notorious for accidentally bumping into expensive things and breaking them. His insurance covers him mostly. I would imagine they would be required to posses the same to cover any damages. I need to replace my roof in the next few years. Keep us posted. You have me curious (and nervous) now.
