Decking the Porch

July brought us some more good weather and the opportunity to get our fascia stained.

The south side of the house before decking the tongue and groove.

The porch roof at one of the corners:

We got some help from some friends for the decking, which made it go a lot quicker!

It didn't go so quickly though once we got to the logs. Each board had to be cut to fit perfectly around the logs.

And we also had to cut into the main section of the roof for the porch roof to fit up inside it. Our roofer insisted on this so that he could run the shingles up underneath the main roof. This should help us a lot with the rain and keeping things dry.

You can see here the porch roof cutting up underneath the main roof.

And the same view from below.
