The roof is looking good. It was quite a tidy job, with insulation underneath and wire nets on the sides to prevent rodents or birds to get into the attic and nested there. The roof's main shape is simple, but the way it covers the car port, front porch and decks makes interesting light and shade around the building.
The original intention was to install a solar water heater on the roof, but when the consultant came they concluded that there's not enough light on the roof due to the dense greenery above. Well, I'd rather have the trees around me get the sun they need and grow healthy, than trimming the foliage just to get solar heated water. My owners can surely figure out a different way to get hot water for their showers. They're humans after all, and are supposedly smart enough to solve simple problems like that.
My owners noticed there's a steep and slippery path between the driveway and where I stand. Some of the workers have commented about the risk of falling if you're not careful. One weekend my owners decided to make a stepped pathway that would make it safer for people to walk up and down into the construction site. Not a bad job for amateurs!
