Hoping any roofers or those with experience can help me out. Recently went through the process of getting a new roof (nightmare). Had crew come back a few times to correct some things (mostly aesthetic).

Anyway, when I go up in my attic with the lights off, I can see small slivers of daylight along the ridge lines. Is that normal? I would assume no but I know nothing about residential roofing.

Trying to gain additional information before raising hell with the contractor. TIA!

If you have a ridge vent, it's normal.

As Aggie taco already stated, it's going to be normal. In case you are curious as to why, here is a picture. You may see more or less light as you move along the ridge, depending on several factors, but it's not uncommon to see light. Here's a photo of what it looks like from the roof line before the ridge vent is put on. This is not my photo. It is from Google, but you get the idea.
