My birthday present: a new roof

Well, the timing is coincidence, and we’re all paying for it, but it feels like a present.

The roofers have put in seven days so far and should be done in two or three more days.

The new shingles are supposed to give us a bit more solar insulation. We’re also getting more ventilation in the space under the roof.

We had to have quite a few sheets of plywood replaced before they could re-shingle.

The worst area was the one under the HVAC units. We had a leak here last winter, which is why we absolutely had to have this done before it rains again.

We were taking a bit of chance in waiting until this late in the year. It usually rains at least a bit in early November, but luckily it’s been fine weather for roofing.
