Mudroom: 15th March 2008

Exterior is Finished

After the great work Mike did in January I was eager to have him back to wrap up the exterior.  On March 8th he made it and we got work.  Rotten rafter tails made work progress slowly.

 

Where ever new siding would meet the old siding we slipped this sticky flashing behind the old planks before installing the new ones.

 

Here is a zoomed out photo of the above mentioned flashing detail.

 

The following 3 photos show the new siding.  Mike and I installed it all, including all of the trim, in one day.

 

The photo on the left is old corner detail while the new detail is on the right.  In the latter the Hardi-Plank butts up against a redwood 2x2.  In the former a piece of trim was nailed over the siding and the big voids where filled with caulk.

The following two photos show the new and old light.  Adding the solid piece of redwood just for the light was one of many of Mike's great ideas.

 

And, is it possible, the outside is done.  Specifically the Hardi-Plank and trim are painted and gutters are installed and painted.
