Well, we have had our first real mess-up. The roofing steel that was ordered by the supplier was ordered the wrong color. Well no color actually. On the day the steel was to be delivered we got the news that it was all wrong. Not wanting to lose a week, we visited the supplier to see if the steel that was received would have been a suitable substitution. It was not. The steel that arrived looked like a mirror, it was so shiny. The worry was that the framers might not be available when the correct steel arrives, the overhead garage door would not be able to installed without a roof, nor would the electrical panel.
But the framers returned and installed the building wrap and strapping on the roof, which gives us weather protection until the steel can go up, which will hopefully be next week.
And eventually, when we have some spare time, Andre and I plan to install board and batten siding on the garage, so while it will have a beautiful steel roof in short order and at least the steel will be a nice compliment to the house wrap on the garage, this is what it will look like for some-time.
