A homeowner needs to reinstall a specialized metal drip edge piece that came off an old slate roof, but generic off-the-shelf parts don't fit and a gutter cleaning company was unhelpful.
Generic drip edge parts don't match custom sheet metal needed for old slate roofs, and there is no easy way for homeowners to find a metal fabricator or identify the correct custom piece.
