Fascia complete
Friday, July 1, garage door tech came to fix the big door. He found the left winder was broken. He replaced it, and then it broke, too. He said he hadn't installed this type of door before so I'm wondering if a more experienced tech needs to work on it. I've suggested same to the owner but no response so far.
After several days working in the rafters at height, we've got the lookouts, fascia and sub-fascia done. Saturday, the 2nd, it rained all day. Sunday we waited until it was dry and got the lookouts done for the north gable. Yesterday the 4th we put more steps and foot supports in the rafters to give us better purchase and completed the fascia and sub-fascia. More thunder and rain descended just as we were finishing up. Then hard rain through the early evening.
Time for a break so we'll head home (July 5) to do laundry and refuel at Costco (we're out of coffee OH NO). We've also been contemplating a change in the living area of the house and have sent the details to our engineer. He has responded saying no load bearing seems to be affected so we just need to mark up the plans and provide engineer-signed-off version to the inspector.
Today, July 7, we returned to Rising Eagle after a full day of laundry, yard work and power-washing of the driveway and hard surface paths. It's amazing how nature takes over when no one is around to do maintenance!
