Putting on the roof of the Bedroom


The roof tin is installed now before the south end overhang, again it is easier to determine the exact edge for the finish lumber.


We hoisted the tin sheets up, one at a time, secured each one then  got up the next. My husband and I did this ourselves , just the two of us. It can be done using alot of leverage. Unfortunately we did not have someone to take the pictures of the process.
We both would get the sheet up on the roof, then I would hold the sheet at the end and run it up so it would land on the roof while Richard was on a ladder to guide it to the right place.


It was then time to put up all the scaffolding we had so our neighbor could finish the overhang safely.
He finished it mechanically piece by piece.
