Dear Experts,
I believe my 2nd story gable is missing two half size end tiles, I think they fell off! I see other homes in my area that have these end tiles. You can see in the attached photos some water damage on one side and possibly a bird nest. I think those end tiles are suppose to meet the gutters. One roofer wants $2,500 to repair both ends. He said on the one end with damage he would cut out a couple feet of the damaged plywood and replace that - made sense to me. However, that seems like a lot of money for what will likely be less than 1/2 a day of work. It is really high. What do you guys think? I have some carpentry skills, not a carpenter though and I know little about roofs. Could this repair be done from a boom?
Thanks!
Brett
Note, the last photo is from a similar home that has those half size end tiles.
