Price for BU Roofing - 12/5/2004 9:28:38 AM

Status: offline 		I have a claim on a 3-ply BU roof with gravel ballast in Gainesville that needs to be replaced.
The total area to be replaced is about 18 squares and it is two stories.
I come up with about $10,000 on Xactimate but the insured has two estimates for $20,000 and $25,000 from two big roofing companies in the area.
Both contractors are using hot coal tar pitch and I was told that most roofers do not use pitch anymore and that this is part of the reason for the higher cost.
Does anyone have any suggestions or possibly a roofer I could contact in Gainesville for another estimate?

Status: offline 		Coal Tar Pitch is the best roof one can install. The materials cost more, the labor costs more.

The price should be, w/insulation in the area of 1000-1200 sq.
