We had the first significant delay of the building project. Rain caused the roofers to fall behind on the job before ours so they arrived four work days later than scheduled. They started yesterday and should be done by the end of today.
The crew consists of several men who are installing the roof panels and two who run the machine that forms the panels on site as needed. There is a picture of the contraption below. We had no idea that standing seam roofing could be made to order in this manner and are delighted to know this part of the project will produce virtually no waste.

The studio is looking marvelous! SA
Wow! Your guest cottage / studio are coming along nicely. I can't wait to see it in October when we're down!
It must be so good to finally be working on the roof. I always feel like the roof being completed and installed is the halfway mark of a home construction. I’m sorry to hear that work got delayed because of the rain, but I can see you’re very glad and excited to finally get that roof put up. Good luck with the rest of the construction!
I totally echo Linda’s feelings about roofs! Seeing the roof completed even on a house that isn’t really ready yet makes you feel that it looks like home already. I hope the roofing work was finished on time despite the delay.
I love the color of your roof! It just seems so cheerful and energetic. Is that a window I spy in your roof, beside the chimney? That’s a pretty cool feature to have. I assume there’s a small room under there, or that the ceiling of the room in the picture is really high.
