Hamlet Roofing Project
Due to the unseasonably warm weather, the contractor has chosen to start re-roofing the Hamlet. Initially, the project was to take place in mid March, but with 45-50 degree days and no rain or snow in the forecast it was an easy decision.
The shingles on the roof are the original from when the building was built in 1984 and were in desparate need of replacement. As you can see moss was making it's home on much of the north facing sides.
The contractor hopes to be done within two weeks and so far the underlying plywood boards have been in excellent shape, so just the shingles and the underlying tar-paper have needed to be replaced.
