Hi Howard! If the roofer is good, he should guarantee his work. Refer to your contract from the repair and contact him or her to arrange a meeting to check it out. I'm not sure what he inserted under the the siding, but, materials should be such as flashing. Good luck!
I cannot figure out why the contractor would take off the siding to fix the roof. It is possible he did not line the shingles up properly during installation or put down a water (vapour) barrier before placing the shingles. Call him back and make him do it properly. He should have put a drip edge on the bottom of the roof near the eaves so that the water runs off as opposed to backing up and creating damage. The shingles should be hanging over all edges by at least one inch.
For roof leakage, why don’t you choose a good roof repair sealant like Liquid butyl rubber that has long lasting benefits along with a 10 year warranty to its customers? Liquid EPDM is an ASTM certified solvent based elastomeric roof coating which has the capability to adapt due to any temperature changes as it have high tensile strength and 500% elongation so it has high resistivity from cracks during harsh temperature fluctuations. It also has excellent waterproofing abilities as it can withstand ponding water 365 days a year.
