Looks like a pump jack aluminum plank in the view.

No suh. 

But still headed the right direction.  Upwards.

Trim work and gutters.

I’m guessing pergola… 

 

But may want to go higher. Boss may not like having her view cut in half like that…

Just showed Trina this picture and we agree that we like having the rooftop deck. Might have to be an add-on.

 

 

 

[ebinmaine 67,500]

Here's a before. 

 

 

 

 

And a progress report pic. 

 

 

 

 

Not done yet. 3/4 or so plus the rakes at the ends of the gables. 

 

We're having the entire perimeter of the roof trim replaced as well. All Certainteed Vinylboards. 

 

 

All the metal and metal trim is made right North of us in Bridgton, ME.

Nice choice. I want to go a similar route with ours in the next couple years.

Good color choice and color combinations. Charming looking place.

[Oldskool 6,644]

Looks sharp. We have been thinking the metal roof route as well.

Wasn't much of a thought at all by either one of us about going with an asphalt roof.

We both like the look of metal much better. The lifespan of a metal roof is far longer than most shingle roofs.

Snow just....... Slides off...... So there's no concern about keeping the first two or three feet clear all the time. 

 

We were considering a black metal roof for a while for efficiency reasons but decided to go for red.

Very happy we went that way.

[Oldskool 6,644]

We will probably wait a bit longer. I wanna make sure it's the last roof I put on.

[OldWorkHorse 3,045]

Nice investment on that roof! Almost as good as a wheelhorse!  honestly that looks great and like others said nice color combo!

Save room??

 

Shouldn't the grill be the focal point??

Everything that is needed to be water resistant is finished up. Chimney base lead replaced. 

What's left now is to put the white PVC trim,  red metal end rake covers on and for PVC lamb chops at the bottom corners.

Just in time for the rain? It must have started down there by now?
