You know in 2006 when an old (30ish year) roofing contractor friend did our roof I asked him if I needed to build a bigger cricket behind the chimney and he said No I’m using Blah Blah and it’s not needed, I worked in framing a few yrs and knew how to make a cricket, wish I would’ve hell I actually wish I’d hired somebody else, Nothing but problems, 3rd roofer stoped the leak, Kathy said “If you hire someone else you know I’m Shooting You!!” I’m not kidding that’s really what she said while crying, and she knew the roofer about as long as I have, it was a real mess, guys I met on 1 of my jobs (Mexicans) Fixed it from leaking, talk about feeling like Shit when you’re in a building trade and the roofer you think is Good really Sucks, I had my tail between my legs till it was Correctly fixIt's like a mini dormered roof to divert the water away from the chimney or stack.
