WE GOT IT!


Submitted: September 19, 2009 as an emergency repair because every time it rains, we have water coming into the house.

Received: November 4, 2009, after 4-times-a-week phone calls to the permit office since submission, three separate visits to give them extra stuff or explain why we don't need an electrical review, and paying more money in fees.

If it took that long for an emergency job, I would hate to see how long it takes for a non-emergency job.

And so now that we are legit, our roofer can order roofing tiles, we can clean out/up the attic, and by the end of November, we will have a new (non-slate, *sigh*) roof. More importantly: no more water coming into the house and a chance to really insulate the attic.
