I’ve got to redo the gutter lines that are supposed to be min 4” below the surface, some are visible.@Pink_Vapor mine pales in comparison to that.
Honestly doesn’t look to bad after 29 years. Looks like the fascia board was in a weird location sticking out on the roof which caused the water to pool. I’m definitely no roofer but not sure how to deal with flashing with a board sticking out on the roof like that.I'll start off...
Had the roof replaced in 1990. There's one spot on the face board the the paint looked weird. I've been keeping an eye on in since September last lear. This morning I hear a bird doing bird things along the roof line in back. Upon locating the bird it looks like it wants in and has been poking at the spot where I've been eyeing.
Well Mr. Bird said it's time to go and take a look at that spot. Once up there I see it's all rotted. Seems the roofer didn't put the flashing on correctly. It stopped short of the shingles and water has been getting into the soffit.

I weather proofed it for now. I don't know if I want to do it or hire someone. Had one person out today, two more Monday.
I smell what you’re stepping in!This thread is the very reason I don't hire people to do work around my house or on my vehicles.

You need a new shop.I manage a research and development lab.
I hired a shop to align a 30HP electric motor gen set to smaller motor. We're going to instrument the heck out of this thing and look at details of V and I as we do things to the motor. Its a fairly standard configuration.
One of the tasks was to supply a new motor, mill flats into the housing and attach three accelerometers to the cast iron end of the motor (one in each axis) via tapped and threaded holes that would allow a stud to attach the instruments to . These sensors are about as big around as your thumb and cost about $100 each.
The shop delivered the motor stand and we proceeded to begin to wire up the equipment (power, data gathering equipment, etc). One of the folks started to attach the leads to the accelerometer, which promptly fell off. Upon closer inspection, the shop had buggered up the newly threaded holes in the motor housing and stripped them out.
They "fixed" this by re-attaching the instrument with JB weld, I guess thinking we'd not notice.
This sensor was about 1" above a 2.5" solid steel armature. When (not if) this sensor fell off, it would have wrapped the sensor cabling around the rotating armature and yanked about $10,000 of precision instrumentation off the wall mounted grid above the motor stand.
They came out yesterday to try again.

Ask them if they’ve ever heard of a Heli-Coil.
I'm amazed there are this many posts and no mention on The Battery Oaks Gunsmithy!!! Our specialty is lopping off barrels.
