Same Mexicans in both places Lucrum. The crews travel all over the US.
Talk to your contractor, should be a warranty, or PM me some pics I'll tell you how to have them fix it.
The good ol boy was a trick question, the real good ol boys already have a good job. It's sad but you can not get good American grown labor for roofing. I know roofing contractors from all over and none of them will hire a white crew. I'm on a big project now and if a white crew offered to do it for 5 grand cheaper than my guys, I'd turn them down. It's not about money it's about a quality job and loyal workers. America isn't the same as it used to be, in years past no one would look down their nose at a hard dirty job, but people are different today, especially young men. 1997 was the last time I hired a white crew for residential roofing.

I did commercial roofing when I was a kid still in college in Montgomery Alabama where I grew up. It was summer work between semesters.

Man, it was about the hardest job I have ever done. I push that damn gravel buggy all day long in 98 degree July heat. I was the only white guy except for the foreman who moonlighted as a Wrestler lol.

One day, I swear it was a good 125 degrees on that roof and this black guy who was the mop man paused for a sec, propped his arm on his mop, pulled out bottle of Volka and took a big ole swig lol.

Hardest Job I ever did was working on a Ironworking crew building a Factory. That crew was all white. About 30 of us. It was 10 hours a day 6 days a week. $5.50 an hour. It was unbelievable how much I was making.
