Need a new roof!





Dale managed to keep a majority of the rain out of the building by covering the entire roof with tarps.  When you consider the building is a total of abou 75' x 90', that's a lot of tarps!!!  Unfortuneately, they're starting to disinigrate so it's time for a new roof.  Many of you, like myself, would think you'd just call a roofer to come out and take care of things.  But NOOOOO, I'm married to Dale. :)

You can't just put a new roof on the building, you have to FIX everything that's up there, too!


More brick to be repaired before the new roof is installed.

And all the metal thingies have to be removed so the ledge they're mounted on can be repaired.
And in case you were wondering what it looks like up there, well here it is!  On the left is one of the skylights that has been covered with a tarp.  There are six skylights in total that need to be replaced.

  1. I agree! It's a good thing you've repaired the foundations before installing the new roof in. It'd be awkwardly damaging to keep the ledges that way while installing the roof. Hopefully, the project turns out as well as I think it will. All the best! :)

  2. It looks like it's shaping up quite nicely! Sure, there’s still a lot work that needed to be done back then, but once you’re done with the foundation, the roof could be mounted easily. I hope everything turned out perfectly with the rest of the renovation. Have a nice day!
