9/23/10 Stripping Shingles & Rake Added On Front Of House. Autumn St., Lynn

Today, we spent the first half of the day stripping all the old shingles off of the rest of the roof. The boards on this side were in much better condition than the other, so we didn't have to replace many. Here's Pig Pen & Bill finishing up.
The carnage.
Any time we strip a roof, we take time to make sure all things in the area are properly protected and covered. We laid tarps out and covered the neighbors cars with tarps, drop cloths and 4x8 sheets of plywood.

Here we are putting up some 2x4 supports so we can put on the rake.

We started to flash the chimney.

We started the day by taking the tarps off the roof and stripping the rest of the shingles off the side of the house we have staged.
We set up this amazing 1960's electric ladder so we can easily bring up the bundles of shingles to the roof.
Here's Bill stripping off some shingles.
Here's Drew aka Pig Pen cleaning up the chimney.
At the end of the day after replacing the old, rotting boards on the roof, we covered the exposed roof so no moisture can get in.
