There's a house with a roof

The roof and gutter ended up going up a week later than expected. I thought the roof would take up to three days to go up but it went up in only one day.

I was really nervous about seeing the roof as I chose the colour for it (caper) and on paper the colour looked the same as woodland grey, which is on the gutters, but after reading about it online, many people said it is actually a lot lighter in real life under the sun than on paper. BUT............I love it! I think if I had chosen darker tiles it might have made the house too dark as the bricks are quite dark already.

As you can see in this picture, only the top half of the house has been cleaned so far. I am pretty sure the rest of the house will be cleaned after the scaffolding comes down.

It is really starting to look like a house now. I cannot wait for the carpenters to come next Tuesday as they will put up the cedar cladding and eaves. Then the scaffolding will be moved so the garage roof can go on and then hopefully the ugly scaffolding will come down.
