Genuinely confounded by the hostility here. As I said in my post I want folks to be aware of the moment when roofers can charge you exorbitantly for repairs. Pursuing legal action over the particle board is not worth my time (and not the point of the post).

Wow a lot of folks in the comments want me to go to war over the particle board. I asked my savior about this specifically and he said it's not worth the hassle, yeah plywood is better but the particle board should hold up fine.
Plus a law suit would take up a ton of my time and focus. It's my decision and for me it's not worth the time.

No because I didn't need all new joists. I needed 1 new joist.

There was other repair work as well but I agree with you even at $15k I got hosed.
The problem with holding a hard line and not paying them is they wouldn't start the work until I paid half of the repair invoice. And then the wouldn't finish the roof (put down the modified bitumen) until I paid the second half of the repairs. So they've really got you over a barrel until your roof is complete.
Thanks for the question.
