Well friends, today we got the ribs for the roof up. Also we put up the bendable plywood on the roof front.
There is so much gluing, caulking and screwing that my hands and nails are such a mess. I am such a mess.
Rick is amazing and we worked for eight hours today. Once the roof is finished the fun begins!
This is the front part of the roof. before we started putting the plywood on, Rick wanted to waterproof the plywood around the windows and on the ribs. We got the ribs up by 11 am. We painted until lunch and then we went to Rona for supplies.
You can see here the treatment on the wood for waterproofing and the yellow is oil based paint used to seal and protect the wood.
The roof is being caulked, glued and screwed on by Rick. We are really beginning to hate glue and caulking. Our fingers, nails and hands have paid the price but in the end it really will be worth it.
We also have the centre of the roof up with the opening for the fan. Tomorrow it is supposed to rain so Rick will be doing the electrics. I will be working on the door. All is good!
Blessings to all! xox
