latest remodel





Ever start a project because it absolutely had to be done then only to find out it meant starting another project you hadn't planned to start?????? That's what this quasi-porch is all about. We needed to repair a poorly planned seam in our metal roof. A leak had started and the ceiling on the enclosed porch was suffering. So, repair the roof........ but if we ever wanted to extend another porch, we needed to do it now, so that the metal on the roof would be extended in one piece, not several. So, the extension has happened. What we are going to do to finish it out, I'm not sure. Rock or slab or tile or brick for the floor. Probably beadboard for the ceiling. It's much larger that either of us anticipated. Should be a great place to winter my potted plants. Will keep updating as anything else changes.
