We just went through 3 days of having a new roof put on the house, barn, small shed, and a dog house. Also a 56' x 12' polycarbonate patio cover replaced. They were all about 37 years old. What a change in the look of the place. Thankfully that will be the last time we have to do that. It should outlast us. It was a real pleasure watching a team of 4 do the job. It was very professionally done and what appears to me to be very high quality.
No, it wasn't courtesy of Obama or the insurance company or credit card company. It was thanks to my labor over a lot of years and budgeting and saving for it. You know, the good old fashioned way! Cash!
