New Construction Started
The next phase of home remodeling has begun. This time, we’re going to replace the roof. Glenn noticed last spring that the shingles on our roof are curling, which means that it’s time to get a new roof. I’m not sure how we’re going to afford it, but it needs to be done. We’re going to replace both layers of shingles on the house and the garage.
When I say “we“, I mean Glenn and I. Somebody needs to explain to Chrissy that it is a terrible idea to put me on top of the house for any length of time. I’ll be wearing a harness that is attached to the crest of the roof by a rope, though. I’ll look rediculous, but I’ll be less likely to die. At least we waited until the fall to do this. It would have really sucked to be roofing in the heat of late August.
We put in the order for the supplies last week, and they should be calling for a delivery date soon. Glenn also ordered lumber to reinforce the joists in the garage. It turns out that the joists are sagging as much as six inches and are cracked in some places. That will come first, since we don’t want the new garage roof to cave in on my cars.
