The plywood is all down… If the weather can stay dry long enough, the roofer will come out next week and glue the vinyl decking material down. But the block has to be good and dry – the contact cement they use when they wrap the vinyl up the wall, won’t stick to wet block (although the latex cement for the plywood is fine). Here’s some pix, with Bailey enjoying his new habitat… You can see I have to move some cable television wires, too.
Meanwhile, the garage door is a bit of a mess. The floor isn’t level, so a strip of cedar needs to be fixed to the bottom panel. And the side boards need to be replaced with non-pressure treated (it will corrode the metal rails, I’m told); and they need to go all the way up, and tie into the rafters. Furthermore, because they used extra-heavy angle iron for the header (it’s a 12 foot garage door, doncha know!), the block sticks out further than it should on the inside, and needs to be ground down…
Well, no project is without its travails, and I’ve had my share of 'em. But we’re getting there!
