Hail Damage

Sam in Texas asked:

We had hail damage, had a new roof installed. The new roof contractor said the original roof was built wrong where the gables are located on our roof. The new contractor re-used the old headwall flashing which looks horrible. New Contractor said they cannot place shingles over the flashing , plus they cannot remove the old flashing due to the siding. The chimney flashing is awful. The new roofer also put nails along the ridge, saying it is correct and they used 50 yr caulk to seal the nails. My camera does not pick up the nails along the ridges very well. Any help would be grateful. Thank you
