They started my new roof today...

[Fuddyduddy1952]

They started on roof today. Metal standing seam 1.5". They ran off different patterns but we liked the standard flat the best.
I cut this tree down overhanging the roof...not sure what it even is (wild cherry?). Then it started to rain! They quickly covered roof with a large tarp. They'll put down a radiant barrier (insulation) which should help. Black roof, black 6" gutters & downspouts.
Should be nice & last roof we'll need.

Nice. Never seen a trailer like the one like they are using.

I haven't either, self contained dumpster, it's motor runs hydraulic pump and you can move it around. All the old shingles, nails, etc. go right in.

it gets pulled like a trailer on the road. it can raise up and they can dump it right into a dumpster. What's nice is they raise it to eave level and shovel the roof right off and into it, then cart it to the dumpster.

They really help keep the job site clean, and I think they reduce some of the hazards of roofing.
