Back On Top

It's taken some time to choose a roof to put over our heads. What started out as the no-brainer decision to put on a Metal Roof with screws, then became the $$$ decision of installing a seamless Metal Roof (Jonathan's push) and then reality hit... There's more hidden damage to fix. So, shingles became our new best friend!!!

Now, came the bigger decision... What color shingles are we going to choose? After all, we have to drive up and look at this thing for the next 25 years. After Sam from Roofing by Curry sent us to a few houses to see from Bradenton to Bent Tree, we finally settled on "Nantucket Morning". Oooooh-Ahhhhh! Believe me, all those decisions was easier said than done... Just ask Sam! ;)

The "roof picking" process as well as scheduling, finally brought us to today. The roofers were fearlessly ripping the roof off of the Main House with the other two buildings on track to start tomorrow. Actually witnessing the unveiling of the unknown was a "reality check" that our decision to go with shingles versus metal was the correct one. Not to mention, it might just help us stress a little less and not breakout with "Riviera Red" shingles ourselves.

Tomorrow is another day!
