We've been busy with the framing of the mudroom/entry addition. Trying to tie in the existing roofs to the new addition was tricky. We also needed to remedy the flat roof out back. There was a few sleepless nights where the roof over the NEW kitchen was open to the elements and we were concerned about thunderstorms ruining all our hard work. But someone above (my dad, perhaps) was looking out for us and the doppler radar showed the storm headed our way, splitting as it reached Cape Elizabeth and then re-forming after it passed. It was amazing. Amazing that we were saved from further destruction.
Above photo shows the wall and roof of the new kitchen being exposed to the elements, as the roof is being framed up over the new mudroom/entry.
New elevation for the mudroom entry. So exciting to see the progress.
Again, Carter brings his generosity to help Erik roof the new addition. It is amazing to have such a great friend, to take a day away from his family to help us out. We cannot thank him enough or his lovely wife Sarah. It makes the work go so much faster and easier to have the extra help.
The Typar goes up before the grace ice & water shield, when water rolls off the roof it doesn't find it's way beneath the building wrap.
More updates to come- so stay tuned....
