Roof Beginnings

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

These pictures show the general condition of the roof. As you can see it
definitely needed replacement.

 

 
The roof above the bedrooms with all my little repairs   The tree house
     
 
The roof over the front of the house. This area was argueably the worst area. Lots of repair here.   Don and I have been using the tree house for easy access to the roof. We have recently added a plank that we can just walk across.

Do you think we got our money's worth out of this roof?    
     
 
Ugly as it is, this repair held out this last winter...   ...but no one knows how.
     
 
     
     
 
View from the back patio area   Garage cleanout in preparation for the roof work... what a nightmare
     
   
We have begun the tear off... shingles waiting to go to the dump.

Lots of wood that could be burned but instead we're just hauling it to the dump.   Delivering the 20 yard dumpster. Turns out that this dumpster was way too small. Could have easily filled one up twice that size. We're using the pickup to take the shingles away instead.
     
 
Tearing off over the back of the house. We left the paper on so that all that dirt wouldn't fall into the attic.  

Down to the planking over the rec room and garage.

     
 
Don has been working on the roof line over the rec room and attic. There was a hump in the roof that was left when the garage was added on.   The dumpster... it was completely full for awhile but we've been hauling wood to the dump in the pickup to make room for real trash in the dumpster.
     
 
Plywood sheathing over the rec room and garage   Don...
     
 
One of the better views from the roof. Actually it's the only view we have that isn't obstructed by trees. I like the trees but they're bad for views.   The last part of the house to tear off.
