old roof, new roof


The photos should be in order, showing various parts of the old roof, flashing around the chimney, etc. as well as the empty (and later, full) dumpster in our driveway, the roofing materials, the guys working on the roof.  The last photo is somehow the only one I have of the NEW roof!  I'll have to remember to take some more soon.  I had planned to post old photo of chimney flashing vs. new chimney flashing, etc. but...I have twins and so you are lucky to get this ;)

Bell Roofing was awesome and Donna who works for them is amazing.  They replaced over 300' of bad wood (a new record, apparently) and ended up giving us a discount on the wood since it was so much.  We also had a ridgeline vent installed and hope it makes a difference this summer...especially since we just found out a few weeks ago that our AC unit isn't freezing up because something is wrong with it so much as it's probably just too small for our house.  Ouch!

We had our roof replaced a few years ago and thanfully didn't need much new wood -- but the tear off (4 roofs) cost the same as putting the new one on!!!! Our home was built in 1920 and we had every roof that was ever on the house STILL on the house (in 2005)

New roofs are nice!
