Editors Doing Actual Work!

DanMorrison, Executive editor, Fine Homebuilding & Green Building Advisor | January 20th, 20121 comment

We took on a little roof damage from the freak snowstorm last October, so we decided to re-roof our garage shop. Roof Services from Deer Park, NY sent a crew to strip the old roof, prep the deck, and install a new one. A video series on the project is featured on the Project House home page and also here: http://www.finehomebuilding.com/how-to/video/replacing-roof-series-introduction.aspx

We're making good progress on the garage shop at the project house. Drywall is hung, carriage doors are installed and the new front facade has been painted.

Here, the doors are still being assembled. They're now completed and in place, so stay tuned for a full article about their construction and installation.

Before shingles were installed. You can see the 2 in. layer of XPS foam and the cross-hatched furring. Would we do this furring detail again? Probably not.
