What to my wondering eyes did appear this morning but two white pickups, hauling the roofer and his crew. He was out of town all last week but promptly showed up today to extend the VentSure material out to where the eave overhangs start.
I asked him not to put any tar layer on the woodstove chimney base for now. He assures me that the silicone caulk is very good and especially made for roofing application - it's even used to seal openings in metal roofs. He did have his workers add some more silicone caulk around the hot water heater vent.
He really was only going to put the tar on to please us and in his professional opinion, it wasn't necessary. I'd rather trust his professional opinion and not worry about it myself. If there would be a leak, I'm sure it would only be a small seep not a flood and we'd have him come out at that time to address it. Case closed!!
He apologized for his behavior of a week ago. I'd recommend him now.
