Sunk in roof and shingles

Roofing/Construction Questions

Contractor replaced shingles 2 weeks ago. Damaged plywood near ridge caps. A 5" hole was repaired after they did the shingles. They pulled some shingles off and cut a half sheet of plywood and replaced damaged section now shingles look sunk in. Is this acceptable?

I have to agree with Ivoman, without proper bracing its going to be a problem that in time may cause further damage to your roof that wouldn’t have happened otherwise. Anytime water has a place to pool up or even slow down as it runs down the slope it’s going to cause infiltration and a leak sooner or later

#17

Why in the world would you think someone was good at something based on the country they came from?

#18

I saw a couple houses they did in my community looked ok.

I just assumed by your alias, Contractor1, you were a contractor. Look up truss on the interweb. Look in the attic and see if they match.
