New Roof, Day 2

Another day of great progress!
The entire east side of the upper roof and the addition roof are done.


Didn't take long to tear off the west side of the upper roof and re-deck it.


The attic room/kitchen roof is stripped and ready for decking. Some leaky spots will require a little bit of repair work- but it's not drastic.

This was the corner that had the big "hole" in it. It is now completely repaired and looks great!

Soffit vents were put into the 70's addition (game room/master bedroom area).

 

The entire south side of the "attic room/kitchen" roof is shingled now, and they've begun to install the plastic sheeting over the decking on the back of the upper roof.
 
Not quite half-way done with the shingles on the north side of the attic room/kitchen roof. They will probably have this section done by the time they quit working today. I can't believe how fast they work!  
 
Check out Day 3 for more updates!

  1. This was one big project! Good thing that it's finally over now. It must be a great relief to know that when the rainy season came, you would not see any shingles flying off your roof. Anyway, you're very lucky to have good handy men who were able to finish this job fast and properly. I hope it's still in good shape until now and for years to come.

  2. I know it's a little late but congrats on the new roof, Valerie! How is it now? I hope it didn't leak during the past rains and storm. I just notice the tree that shadows your roof; we had one like that, but decided to completely cut it as the leaves that fall down on the roof brings moisture and causes to rot, and those leaves in the gutter can block its drainage.

  3. Yay, Conner is right! Water and moisture are foremost enemies of your roof! And if you have a tree hanging over you roof like that, you need to watch out not only for falling leaves but for its branches that scratches the materials of your roof
