Investing in anything can be risky and there's as much money lost as made with poor portfolio management. There's no such thing as a risk-free investment - whatever the publicity and hype says. Generally, the more expansive the promises, the greater the risk and the claims of quick and easy returns are the ones that are most likely to be broken but, with good and careful methodology, there are some sound investment opportunities around - Real Estate in Sarasota Florida is one of the best of them.

Roofer's Contract Spec'ed #30 felt paper, but used #15 instead -- Suggestions?

My mother had her house re-foofed and as I was cleaning up the yard I found a felt paper wrapper for the 15 lbs kind.  I had read the contract and it called for 30, so I was really concerned my Mom had been ripped off.  I looked it up on the internet and confirmed it was definitely #15 (Esgard No.15 Asphalt Felt Plain).

After some more research, it seems it's not as serious of a cheat to use   15 instead of 30 on a low pitched roof like my Mom's, but I'm still pissed they'd take advantage of her like that.

My opinion of this particular roofer is already pretty low after finding a huge gash on the patio roof that they made and slapped a piece of icegard on it.  They seem to think there's little chance of us going up on the roof to check it out....

I've already complained about the hole and they've agreed to come back and fix it properly.  Should I even bother bringing up the felt paper? Other than these two discoveries, the roofing job looks okay.  Does Northeast Ohio need 30 pound felt paper?

Is this kind of thing common?
