Thanks for that. I really wish there was someone from the list here in town, since for
all the contractors here, I have a really hard time finding anyone who can, or is willing
to, think a problem through the way you folks do. And they definitely see me coming.</span></font>

For instance - just had my water heater replaced. Needed a big one as it heats the
kitchen and part of the basement and I have tenants. So, replacing the 60 gal one, I
called my regular plumber and he quoted me just under $2K. I know he's expensive. I
called another well-known city plumber to see if I could get the price down a bit and he
quoted me ~$5K. I don't understand that kind of thinking at all, but I see it so often. </span></font>

Just so glad I can at least get some good advice and guidance here, even if I can't
persuade you to come and do the job. <(^o^)></span></font>

Depends how long the wall is against the roof – if you can get it ready (pull all the
material back from the roof membrane, take off whatever siding, trim, etc, remove
the door, and clean everything well). Probably need a carpenter or (handyperson) to
tear out the sill and whatever is damaged and replace it (should be max a day – 5-
800). If you can get a roofer or someone experienced with access to the right
materials that work should be 1-1500. </span></font>

That would be my guess as to what it would cost me out here (but my crew is
experienced with membranes and waterproofing details) – you should have more
access to the right skills in Toronto but really depends on how lucky you are to find
the right person. Problem with that type of work is you just can’t get a carpenter type
person that is not experienced with it - as they could putter at it for a week with
numerous trips to home despot and do it wrong in the end at triple what it should
cost. These materials are easy and fast to use when someone is experienced (and
require speed) but a mess if not – and the proper materials are a specialty supply.</span></font>
