Roof and Siding


So over the summer we (well mostly Tuck) have been finishing the exterior. All of the windows and doors are in, and the metal galvalume roof and fiber cementboard siding have been our main focus. In addition we got a deck down on the south deck so that it could be a working area and not a hazard. We have learned a lot about the process -- that it is slower when you aren't an experienced crew, that a custom-designed house means that some of the features have to be custom made, and that loyal friends with some free time and great skills make a huge difference! 

For example, here are Tuck and one of those skilled friends, Mike Rolleri, fitting the siding around the round window.
