Roof and Bedrooms 2/27/2008


I was able to start getting some of the metal drip edge up along to roof. It was a slow process since I had to keep moving the ladder every 4 nails but I did get a lot up. Jeremy showed up later on Saturday and helped me run to Menards to pick up the bath tub for the girls bathroom and the shower for mine.


Last weekend Doug and I were able to get both Lydia and Ava's bedrooms and bathroom framed up. The picture above is looking at the girls' bathroom and Ava's bedroom(to the left).



The above picture is standing in my bedroom looking toward the laundry room. The three squares at the bottom of the picture are Rachel and my walk in closets. The hallway to the master bath is the middle square. Just above those is the master bath. The 2 X 6 that is on the floor in front of the propane tank separates the master bath and the laundry room.

2/13/2008

Last weekend was a cold one but I was able to get a lot done on Saturday with the help of Dad and Jeremy. We only have about 10 sheets left to put up. Once that is done, I will get the windows delivered and the interior walls put up for the bedrooms and bathrooms. Not much else to report until after this weekend when the roof is sheeted.

Weekend Update...

This weekend went well. It was in the mid to upper 20's and not windy which really helps when your carrying sheets of OSB around.

Saturday we were able to get finish some valley work and some sheets on the lakeside done. It took a while because a lot of it was custom cutting because of the angled valleys.

Sunday we got a late start since we had to go to church because Lydia received her God and Me pin for Girl Scouts. We got going around noon and had to move the scaffolding from one corner to the other.


Looking at the pictures it takes a little time and patience to get the scaffolding set but this will the last time we will have to move it for a while. We got the 2 X 6 fascia board up on the last corner and were able to get the OSB on along the perimeter. So next weekend we will try to finish up the sheeting on the roof.
