In practice, budgeting a Temple City replacement a few seasons out costs nothing and removes the pressure of choosing a roofing company during a storm. Financing makes sense on a Temple City roof covering that is actively failing; it rarely makes sense on one with years of life left. In practice, cheap Temple City quotes as a rule skip the flashing.
