Okay, back to work. More updates tonight!
Let me know how it goes Jeff. I really need to get mine done.
BTW, they needed to tear it all off? I thought you could layer? Heck, I don't know...
I'm VERY impressed so far. The price and speed of job are well beyond my expectation.
you "can" layer, but it's a BAD idea. I had 2 layers on the roof, and it leaked. You cannot find a leak when there's 2 layers. Additionally, your insurance will go up because the cost to replace a 2-3 layer roof is more expensive. Additionally most shingle mfr's won't warranty a layered install, and the life expectancy is cut in half.
Bottom line, it can be done but it's something you don't want to do.
I'll shoot you an email with a bit more info.
Week 2 update. Roof is done, siding is about 60%

Gosh Jeff, not like making us look slow........
.... but then again, it's only Paul and myself working on the house on the weekends.
Here's week four:
- - Furring strips up and additional foam insulation added.
- - Dining room windows removed and an outswing french door installed. (If I had nuts, I swear I pulled one lifting that thing up).
- - Soffit removed on front and back of house.
- - Former hardboard siding, all nails removed and relocated to the barn for future use.
- - Brick on front of the house removed (it was yellow, it had to go!)

Oh yeah, I got my garden planted too.
that's not bad dawn.. I'm sure your bill will be about 30% of mine and you'll have more material use!
