Lap Band and More

Lap band (thicker trim piece on the back of the house)

More lap band (some pieces don't match as they still need painted)

Shingling the hips of the roof

A close up of the hips.

Travis has today and tomorrow off work, and the next trim work that needed to be done was the lap band. This is a two person job, so I actually took this afternoon off to help and we will finish up tomorrow. We got out to the house at about 1:00 and there were lots of people working away.

The roofers had finished all the shingles and started on the peaks. They said they should be done tomorrow. The shingles that go over the ridges are some of the thickest ridges that they have put up. They nail through 5 layers! They tend to stick up a bit more, but it really defines all the "hips" on our roof. We won't really know how well all the shingles will sit on the roof until next spring when the tar can really seal, but as for right now, it looks great!

The HVAC guy and plumber were also working today. The HVAC guy will be gone tomorrow, but will have help the rest of the week, so he should be done fairly soon. We also anticipate the plumber being done this week too.
