[quote=Anonymous]When I bought my house in 2003 I knew that the roof was in bad shape. I did some immediate repairs (eg me on the roof with roofing tar and tar paper) and was able to hold off on replacing the entire roof until 2011. I couldn't afford to replace before then but it only leaked (minimally) a couple more times and more roofing tar provided a pretty good fix. It is nice to have a new roof now though as I no longer worry about leaks every storm. We also put in solatubes which are amazing. So much more light in the hall way. My point is, you can probably defer it unless the leaks are persistent. 4k is a high price for a repair. How big is the roof? I'd get some more quotes on that. WIth a repair you could likely get another 10 years out of it.[/quote]
