Roofing the house this week
Posted January 16, 2009 – 3:46 am in: HomeThis week we are roofing the house. My husband yet again wanted to try to do things on his own. I told him it would be better to just hire someone. Traditionally we have always had a regular shingled roof. Not sure what the word for it is, but the same as most everyone in our neighborhood. Its only recently that my husband has been wanting to get a metal roofing system.
I was trying to read up on Metal Roofing Shingles to see how that works, but it looks to even be more sturdy and strong than just regular shingles. Since the last hurricane we have been looking for a way to really secure our home and make it stronger. I know we didn’t have much damage, but when you live in the south it is better to have a more secure home to handle winds.
I just hope we get this job done once and for all so we can work on getting the windows fixed too which have some cracks in them.
Seems like no matter where I look there is always something that need to be done. that’s a part of being a home owner I guess.
