Attic DIY

It was another stormy night... Really stormy!  It kept us awake plus it took more shingles from our roof... The roofers showed up in the afternoon again to do more patch jobs ... sure hope this will be good enough for a while... They warned us that there might be another storm coming next week, so we asked them to seal the shingles well to prevent them from lifting again.

While the roofers were here, I asked them to change the vent on the roof for the bathroom as it was making a rattling noise. They replaced it but told me we need to go in the attic to tape the vent and the pipe as the pipe is not long enough.

...The Attic... dark, tight space where no one wants to go... I know it is a tight space so I need to do the job.

I opened the entrance to the attic and climbed up with a head light. Should have had a mask too, but it was too late... It was not comfortable, but see, I can do it too? 

This pic was brightened, so it seems light, but it was pitch dark!

    Is there anything you can't do? Good on ya!
    You're quite a team with the DIY jobs.

    Home ownership has it's risks and great rewards.
    You guys are doing a fine job!
