In the gutter

Today it was time to put up the gutters and leaders and get some of the water away from the house. Steve Zander and company did a great job putting up the white aluminum gutters. They were rolled out of a machine on his truck. Then came the copper leaders. We used copper because it is so cheap now. Ha ha. Actually, the architect thought they would look a little more authentic and they do look great. We saved some money by using aluminum for the gutters and they can't really be seen against the white trim.


The copper leaders took a little more time and work. Here is Steve applying flux to the seams and soldering the pieces together.

The house, just about finished.
