My Roof Work Has Begun

[Henry]

Now if we can just get a couple days of good weather, it will be just great.  Mark Minor & his crew are working on my roof today and hope to have it done tomorrow.  I will be putting up a few photos from time to time today.

Well, they have been at it for about an hour and a half and have most of the old shingles stripped off.  They have found a few loose nails in the plywood , but otherwise everything looks pretty good.  The house was built in 1968.

Great news about the plywood, no dryrot, and nails looking good = Henry saving lots of money. good luck

Back when I built my house in 1968 for a cost of $18,000, that fall for some reason and I can't remember what it was, plywood doubled in price.

Judy Hevrin & Kurt Miner pick up the old shingles


The new shingles arrive and are hoisted the easy way on the roof


Mark Minor & Kurt Miner take the new shingles off the lift and place on the roof

Its 82 degrees in the shade, but a bit warmer than that on the roof

Looks like they will be wrapping it up tonight:

 Henry I know you showed there business card in a post once before but could you do it again. I,ve got 2 valleys between my garage and house roofs that keeps leaking. I have been up there 3 or 4 times to fix it, my coats of tar seem to last about a year. Need someone better at roofing then me to fix it for good.
