i went into the attic after the job was done......many of the 1x6 sheathing boards were beat up pretty good. it looks like they got broken up some when the shingle guys were putting nails through them. some of the boards have broken up parts as big as my hand that i can see right up through to the felt under the shingles. i feel like asking my roofer to redo this. i feel that these boards should have been replaced. it doesn't even look like i would be able to walk around up there without risking more damage .....roofer is coming to look at it today....what do you think? is this normal, or am i overreacting? thanks!!!!!

some chipping of aspenite is normal if that is what you have one your roof
you need to have them replace the boards with good ones
any breaks or chunks or spots with holes will only show in the finish job as dips and sags and could leak later on
worse in area`s with lots of rain and snow and wind
even worse are roofs that have a low pitch or are flat
a good job starts at the beginning -ie a is only as good as its foundation
if your base it no good the roof will not last and could come crashing in and flood your house

You are quite in your rights to both be annoyed and to demand repair or compensation ~~

Tradespersons who do work in your property should not damage your property, if they do then they shound have it put right.
