Help

Well we finally broke down and hired a general contractor to help us finish the house. Kevin Fleming of Kevin Fleming Construction has come on board to make our lives easier. He has a ton of resources and a great crew. The roof is finally on - we bit the bullet and used Lamarite slate and it looks beautiful. The weather guard our first roofer used is not approved by Tamko so it voided the warranty. They don't say that the warranty will be voided and they don't specify what they want and they are very vague on the phone when asked about it. The only response I could get was "if you follow the directions, everything should be okay". It's the word should that makes me nervous. The copper flashing was put on and we had copper put on the porch roof which was very expensive. We thought we would put an anodized metal on the roof, but it cost almost as much and could not be soldered just caulked so we went with the copper. The glass doors and transom were put on by Kevin's crew. We ordered the wrong size windows for the original stone house - all nine and that was when we knew we needed some help and called Kevin. We will use the windows for the garage. The new windows are in but have not been installed yet. Here are some photos of the house last year at this time and today.
