First Unexpected Expense

As we began to add on to the other side of the house, we noticed that alot of the wood on the roof had water damage. When the previous owner had the tin roof installed, their were several places where flashing was not installed, thus the water damage. Here are a few pictures to show you the extent of the damage.





















Thankfully, the entire roof isn't damaged and the tin was reusable. Reroofing the house isn't necessarily on our list right now, we've got plenty of other things that need to be done. However, we will have to make some repairs on the roof in other places. But nothing too major.

This door we added, it will be an exit from our master bedroom to the porch.



We removed most of the plants from the front so you can get a better idea of what we're doing. We still have a few windows to replace.
