    Product Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    I hired Joe Wells to repair leaking around my chimney. He said the ridge cap and chimney flashing needed to be replaced. He charged $4,900 for this work. He told me the roof would no longer leak once he was done. The roof continued to leak after he was finished. I notified him and he came back and applied more sealant. It still leaked. He sent me a picture of the label on the product he used which states it is not immersible. He admitted to using the wrong product. He left holes in the roof where he replaced the ridge cap with a smaller one and didn't fill in the holes where the screws from the larger ridge cap were removed. A roofing company came out and inspected his work. They stated he did not properly seal around the chimney and ridge cap. He also did not address the issue which was causing the leaking. Water was standing behind the chimney and a metal piece was needed to divert the water. The roofing company installed the piece. They also stated the original ridge cap did not need to be replaced. It was not the source of the leak. Joe took advantage of me by charging for unnecessary work instead of fixing the issue causing the leak. The roofing company says the entire roof could have been replaced for $6,200. I paid Joe $4,900 for just flashing and the ridge cap.
