The roofers tore off my old roof and laid the 30# roof felt. For the next two days it rained and rained. They couldn't put the shingles up due to the rain. Do I have reason to worry about this. My felt looks a little warped. The roofers assurd me my roof was safe. They said they just need to wait for it to dry up and then they can shingle. Does this sound right?

House Under Construction Rained On

on Sep 04, 2001

In process of building a 16' X 24' garage with large attic. I have built the frame up on slab and wrapped with house wrap. It poured rain and even though I had it all taped up, water is trapped between where 2 layers of the housewrap overlapped (about 6 feet)all the way around. Do I have to worry about mold growing in that trapped area or will it eventually dry out? Thanks for any answers.

Aluminum Siding

on Sep 07, 2001

I recently had my soffits, fascia and gutters done. It was all aluminum. I am trying to determine if it was a quality job. The aluminum only covers about half of the fascia board, but flashing was put in under the roof and it seems that no water should be running down the fascia boards. I was wondering if this was normal or if it was a way to cut cost on the part of the contractor.
