To bring this thread full-circle...
...Great to see and hear about your experience with Zip-Up, Dan. I am actually getting that for the repair of what started this whole thread last June...allegedly the project is starting in the next few weeks, so it will be about a full year from the crash to the start of the repair.
To say that this has been a bit of a fiasco is an understatement. Many calls to various contractors who either: a) never showed up; or, b) came out and took measurements and pictures, but then I never heard from them again nor received a quote from them. The 3 finalists who stood out in their professionalism were Scott Compton Builders, and the construction arms of Stephens Landscaping and Miracle Farms. None of these folks are inexpensive, but I was able to see actual jobs they had done and it is all top-notch. Lastly, getting the insurance company to cough up the money was also a back-and-forth hassle and while they are not covering the entire cost, (they deem the Zip-Up system to be an "upgrade" over the original soffit material), they are covering more than half of the cost.
Finally, light at the end of the tunnel...
