## TODO — Price by material

Cover: 3-tab, architectural, impact-rated Class 4, metal standing seam, synthetic slate, real slate. Per-square pricing for each. Why we no longer install 3-tab in NC.

Cover: square footage, pitch, layers being removed, decking replacement, ventilation upgrades, chimney flashing, skylights, accessibility / steep-slope premiums, dump fees, permit costs in Mecklenburg.

## TODO — How to read a roofing estimate line by line

Cover: what a real estimate should itemize, red flags (lump-sum no-detail bids, missing decking allowance, vague underlayment spec).

## TODO — Insurance-paid vs. out-of-pocket roof replacements

Cover: when insurance covers a Charlotte hail-damage roof, what RCV vs. ACV means, depreciation recovery, supplements.

## TODO — Financing options in 2026
