Most of 2010 was spent on making past-due home repairs.
Frustrated with work and a life of 9 to 7 led me to take a long sabbatical with the result of daily maintenance tasks on a log home neglected.
10 years of harsh Texas sun and weather, plus a deck installer that skimped on proper installation of flashing left me with rot and more rot.
A massive redo on the roof observation deck was needed.
In Texas, anything that can be weathered by the sun will be weathered. P.S. Never use Silicon caulk outdoors in Texas.
To add the flashing, all screws must be removed and the flashing tucked under.
One step at a time.
Flashed and double flashed, this should outlast me.
Now up with some good log siding.
Sun split and cracked hand rails replaced, stained, sealed and too weathered deck boards replaced.
