No not me . Our house.

Spent this week replacing our roof with the help from my neighbour, son in law, and son .

What it looked like before we started ,replace the batons ,put on the colorbond and the finished job from both sides.

Taken from next door .

Looks a big job :) Amazing how a new roof really lifts the look of a house :)

Thanks Cat .

It was a big job but the wife and I are happy with how it looks :th3:

Not the sort of job I would tackle every day though.

Looks Great!
I can attest to how much work is involved.
We've just had our roof replaced as a consequence of storm damage 12months ago. It took a full two weeks of work, but the result is very pleasing.

Nothing like the sound of rain on a colourbond roof :).

a great improvement Derek. The last house I owned, I did the same thing...tiles to c/bond. What a difference.
