Men at Work


The men were back bright and early today to continue the roofing work.

The last of the old tiles came off , and good progress was made on the getting the new tiles on.

They did have to replace a rotten end board first, but it didn't seem to delay things too much.


The porch tiles were among the last to go, and we managed to capture the process via GarageCam.

Not the best quality images, but you can see the old tiles (with their makeshift gutter), stripped off to the old battening, stripped down further, then tyveked, re-battened, and tiled anew.


About a day's work in all (although they were tiling other bits at the same time) - they've done a awful lot in just the last couple of days - but there's still a fair chunk of tiling to finish, plus the fiddly bits of leadwork and so on.  Getting there!
