Another update.
After adding everything up and comparing doing the job myself vs. hiring a contractor, I decided to let the contractor do the project. I know I could have done it myself, but in the end I feel this will be less headaches for me (that's certainly worth something) and also I will get a 10 year labor warranty on his work. The manufacturer has a 30 year material warranty.
So they started on Monday with the tear off and dry in and finished up today.
The metal was delivered this afternoon and they will install tomorrow.
They did some wood replacement along with the tear off/dry in and I'm happy to have that done.
Here are a few pics:
