Also, judging from the design of your roof, it’ll be good to hire a roofer annually to inspect it.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.a1propertyservices.net/roofing/miami-roofing-repair/" rel="nofollow">Neil Hirsh</a><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11303045195184419985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5072219918314541508.post-84239679489129432372013-01-02T18:22:52.208-05:002013-01-02T18:22:52.208-05:00What a wreck of a home, its a shame that the damag...What a wreck of a home, its a shame that the damage was did.

Unfortunately, the problem with an old house is that it is inevitable for some parts to deteriorate. I think, after superstorm Sandy, you made the right decision to replace the roof. You don’t want the next superstorm to come and blow away your roof, right?Joanne Barraganhttp://www.tedricksroofing.com/locations/des-moines-commercial-roofing-contractor/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5072219918314541508.post-33700505456524733912012-12-19T08:43:54.783-05:002012-12-19T08:43:54.783-05:00The weather sure is warm enough to get the job don...The weather sure is warm enough to get the job done.

They/we chose to only replace a few areas w/plywood as much of the original barn board was in very stable condition. As Sweet Posy Dreams said, what a mess in the attic. Took weeks to clean up and we still occasionally find a piece or two up there!<br /><br />Dylan is such a cutie. debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04879013275518538838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5072219918314541508.post-53391804278805582022012-12-18T17:42:02.062-05:002012-12-18T17:42:02.062-05:00Been there, done the roof bit. Original roof here...Been there, done the roof bit. Original roof here was cedar shakes, now illegal because of fire hazard. That was covered by us with composition shingles. I had both layers torn off, plywood decking installed and topped the whole thing off with metal shingles. They look like regular shingles, but hook together top to bottom and side to side. Never have to be replaced, which was its selling feature for me. If Dylan gets too bratty, you could send him out to play with the men on the roof. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17649609489638739514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5072219918314541508.post-33221453372198430472012-12-18T16:16:23.775-05:002012-12-18T16:16:23.775-05:00Rory does the leash biting and shaking thing too. ...Rory does the leash biting and shaking thing too.

(Our house is a youngster compared to yours at only 100 years old when we replaced the roof.) There was such a mess in the attic.
