Default Chimney looks strange after replacing the roof.

You can see where the roof use to be. I found this amusing so I thought I would post it.

Did they lower the roof or raise the chimney?

LMAO Bob. I love it when they tear off the flashing and the homeowner asks me that.

I noticed the house in the background too, you can see where the siding use to be.

This was at the house next door. I'm not sure what they did. The tar used as flashing was still where the roof was originally installed.
