Closing In!

We are closing in the garage roof.  Over half of the sheathing is on!  A bigger job than we had anticipated.  We’ve decided to never build from scratch again.  Rehab but not build.  We’ll leave building to the experts.

We used plywood for the exposed overhang.  Steven routed it to give the look of separate boards.  I painted the plywood and the exposed truss boards before we installed the plywood. We used OSB for the rest of the roof.  The exposed truss boards are the same color as the metal roof.

We have a framing inspection on Monday so we worked all weekend to finish installing the sheathing.  One sheath left to cut and install before 10:30 a.m. tomorrow.
