Too bad one or two of those illegals, you proudly support others paying for, installing the roofing didn't fall on your property attempting to clean-up the debri.

Indeed.

The owner called first thing yesterday morning. I didn't want anyone back there and took us 3 hours to clean it all up... checking to get all the nails.

He called back a short time later giving him a lame reason they could not get into the yard to clean it up because of the locked gate ...

He will be coming by Tuesday to make amends.
after they finally get it all done, be certain to place a large


rock at the end of your driveway.

A few quick questions:

Do you agree that debris landing in a nearby yard during a roofing job is normal, or do you feel that it's intentional negligence?

If it's negligence, what practice SHOULD the roofers have used to prevent that situation? Maybe installing temporary netting, like at golf driving ranges? Should that be required when performing work in neighborhoods?

Finally, you're the contractor. Despite your best efforts, debris went into Slew's locked up back yard. What would you have done about it, specifically, since Slew and family were out of town for an extended period of time? You freely admit you caused the issue, whether it was simply a normal and customary part of the job, or you specifically had intentional negligence.

What do you do as the owner to rectify the situation?

Probably only comes up here because it’s the only place where others know that you voted for the potato.

That's too bad. If it did, your life quality and experience would be elevated quite a bit.

I never thought it was my job or would pick-up after the one's I am paying. I guess things are done differently there.

You’ve never been a general contractor. As one, if you’re any good at it you will wear every hat.
