My contractor is right in the middle of doing a job for me, but he says he could use a week or two off to spend time with his girlfriend thats coming into town,

Should I let him leave this blue tarp on my roof for 2 / 3 weeks or so until they get back from vegas?

He says I will be fine and that the tarp is just as good as a roof until he gets back.

Whats your opinion?

Well, I suppose the answer depends. Currently, where I live, it is 30 degrees so I would not let him go. If the weather is better in your neck of the woods, then you might be a little more relaxed.

I am not sure that a vacation is a good reason to leave a job half finished. He should finish the job and then take his trip to vegas.

I don't think I would let him take off in the middle of the project.

This is kind of a late post, but I wouldn't let him have it off unless he is willing to negotiate. Like give you a couple hundred bucks off the job.
