Got a call from a potential customer. He's not sure his roof and gutter look right and needs an opinion. This is what I saw

Oh the wall flashing seriously is what you should expect to see from 50% or more of the so called roofers in this area. No joke, that's pretty much a standard wall flashing detail around here. Not to say we'd ever do that, but there are many many many jobs with wall flashings just like that which I see every day in my daily travels around Chicago.
