Roofing started

Our roof was “loaded” (i.e. the material was delivered and distributed around the roof) on Tuesday. The truck just *barely* fit down the backyard driveway.

Hall’s Roofing started putting up our composition roof on Wednesday. Bill and his crew made a *lot* of progress on Thursday–by the end of the day they had most of the house covered:

They hadn’t started on Barb’s quilt shop yet, but that’s an extremely simple roof–no penetrations, valleys or hips, just a simple gable roof with an easy 4/12 pitch.

Bill expects to finish the roof on Friday if it doesn’t get too hot; otherwise, they’ll knock out the remainder on Monday morning.

About Jim Vanderveen

I'm a bit of a Renaissance man, with far too many hobbies for my free time! But more important than any hobby is my family. My proudest accomplishment has been raising some great kids! And somehow convincing my wife to put up with me since 1988. ;)
