Sorry for the delay in posting.
Here is the day three. Sure seems like it's taking a while, but I guess you shouldn't rush quality work. LOL

Day Four.. They finally started putting some siding on.
I'm starting to have a few questions about the build now.
My colors are as follows. Bright white roof, Red Siding, Bright white Wainscot, and Black Trim. On the right side they have the first wall of red siding up and no trim under the sheets to mark transition from Side to wainscot. Is this normal, because on the front there is some trim. Seems like the trim is more then just an accent but something to help direct water flow.

Wedge40: Are they putting the metal roofing fasteners on the ridges or on the flats? Are they using nails or screws?

There's another thread discussing that, & I'm curious.

Looks like all metal is fastened using screws on the flats.
Once they got to the sheeting I didn't hear any hammers any more, just the screw guns.

Wedge,

Congratulations on your new barn. It has a nice proportion to it. What will the floor be?

Day Five and Six.

Got the doors hung, all the windows in and almost all the siding and trim on. Had to come back today to finish siding and trim. They actually scheduled 7 days.
