As I mentioned in the Week 7 Round Up, we have been blocked out of the upstairs, so your photos this week will be exterior only (although let’s be honest, you know Blake has taken a ladder and tromped around up there- he just sadly forgot to put the memory card in the camera). We know they (our contractors) have started demoing some of the (remaining) existing upstairs to accommodate the new roof, and the big progress this week is that you can really see the roofline taking shape! Fingers crossed for trusses this week 🙂 The final roofline will be peaked, but you get the idea for how it will fit with the existing roof.
We are also starting to enter the VERY fun part of picking out the exterior finishes. We already ordered a slate gray standing seam metal roof from Englert, and now we are looking into the color for our Hardie Panel siding. We just sent off for color samples on that one, and we are still primarily looking at greens and tans. Photos to come on that one! Our windows are also ordered- can’t wait for a full set I can open and close!!!
