In my last post, I was focusing on some of the items that we would like to complete before year end.  This past weekend Dave and I completed the last portion of our exterior front entry.

Previously:

It is incredibly flat looking, right?  Did someone cut its nose off?  Oh yeah….that was me!!

That roof was a rotten mess, so out with the old rotten, yucky roof and on with the new.  I’ve said it before…what’s with the offcenter roof line????

Supplies

• 2 4×4 – cut to 9 feet
• 2 2×6 8ft
• 1 2×8 8ft
• 3 2×6 12ft
• 4 1×5 8ft
• 2 12ft steel panels
• flash sealant
• flashing
• drip edge
• lag screws and roofing nails
• 2 4×4 post base

Just over halfway

Right before we called it quits at dark

12 total hours of work- mostly done by 1 person.  I helped a little…so maybe it could be counted as 1.5 people??

Putting on the last details

The best part is the day after we finished….it rained.

For a weekends worth of work and $260 we were able to get that extra layer of protection for the front door and those of us that use it 🙂

It has a nose again!!!!  hahahahaha
