I would almost guarantee the contractor does have all of what you said Anthony, but in NJ there is a different set of standards. Most of the time these GAF master elite contractors here sub everything out. So they have the paperwork and all of their subs show them insurance numbers that aren't legitimate and 15 illegals show up your house and tear your roof off and replace it before noon. I can almost guarantee that is what will happen in this situation, a van will show up with no lettering and the contractor will be by at some point for maybe and hour or to run a magnet to clean some nails and that is it. The roofing industry is littered with this here and it is malpractice but the only person running a legit business was probably the $13,000 quote they got and most can't or shouldn't pay that for a 17 square house. Did I tell you NJ sucks yet!!!!

Not just NJ, it's happening here in South Carolina and in Georgia. In my observations brick layers/concrete workers used to be almost all black and framers almost all white, now they are Latinos that work for a subcontractor, wink wink. The sad thing is a legitimate contractor cannot compete.

Warning thread jack on:
As for roof vents, what about homes with sprayed in insulation that covers the attic ridge and sofet vents? We have that and it's been fantastic insulation, but eventually we will need to replace our architectural multi tab shingles, possible with metal or another shingle system. I figured on eliminating the vents on portions that are sealed with foam. We will retain one section that has a cathedral ceiling as well as the portion over the garage.
Thread jack off.
