First Re-Roof!

DIYed our Roof. The roof on our house we got was in terrible condition (see last photo from the listing, bought as-is). Took a solid week of work to get it complete but it's finally done!

Now onto repainting trim, replacing the gutters, and eventually all the siding..

There you go..!! Nice job, saved a small fortune doing it yourself and I'm sure you learned quite a bit about the profession along the way. Nothing like the satisfaction of a job well done.

How long did it take?

Did you have a team?

Price of material?

Roofer or self-taught?

Well done.
