Slowly working on getting the rake trim up and eventually the ridge cap.
I think I am doing things a bit backwards which makes it more difficult. Normally I think you would have the siding on before installing the roof and especially the rake trim.
What I decided to do is cut a few strips...
Got all the metal roof panels on and in place. The long side the panels were 23'6". Had to get a buddy over to lend a hand getting them puppies up on the roof. We built a ramp out of 2x6 and slid them up there.
I've got all the wall sheathing up except that left side where the garage doors...
Got all the roof deck on and covered in REX synfelt.
Ordered roof metal yesterday. 1500sq ft for $1400. Includes all screws and trim and fillers. It's supposed to be delivered on Monday. Going to work on sheathing the walls until then. I had 40 more osb sheets delivered yesterday...
I got the roof sheathed with osb and I chose to go with a synthetic underlayment.
Lifting all 40+ sheets of osb onto the roof by myself was not fun but it's done.
Roof is about 3 inches out of square on one end, I'm not sure how I will hide this when I put the roofing on...

I'm going to be ordering the metal for the roof soon. Still getting quotes from...
Got posts for one side in today. Progress has been slow. Doing all the work alone is a pain in the rear. I've had to replace more rotten wood than I originally thought. The ledger/header on both sides has been replaced. I have also doubled up on the rafters.

It had a layer of 1/2" poly foam with the foil on each side. And on top of that was plastic corrugated panels.
The foam could not be salvaged. Most was eaten by varmints and what was left is soaked in pee from varmints.
The plastics panels was just a terrible idea from the start. What a...
Roof is off. Still need to replace a few rotten purlins, all rafters look to be ok.
Going to set posts this weekend and hopefully get roof sheathing done next week.

Today I sprayed it down with a heavy bleach mix let it sit and then power washed the interior. I could not believe what an improvement it made. Far less stink now. Most of the bird poop and other **** is gone including spider webs and such.
I also tore out a little more of the siding. I...
