Wouldn’t want to walk that roof. :shock:
Amazing… any leaks?
no leaks… mostly Knob and tube . needed a new wire every where .
Lovely inside . 14 years ago~ too long to remember every thing .
Small restaurant big stove I said to purchaser be a good idea to put screen around stove .He said oh but I like it big time . I said some times Saturday night some drink too much and get a bit rowdy one falls against the stove gets burnt and you could be in trouble. WOW he said grabbed me and said I sure am glad we got you for the inspection .$100.00 bonus for us.
If you mean my roof, very little moisture intrusion.
Look at the underside of the metal shingles, still shiny from 1865 :shock:
Amazing why can’t they make stuff like the used too? :roll:
I told the homeowner if they saved any of the shingles they could probably sell them on Ebay.
151 years old and still shedding water. Only problems I found was the flashing in some areas.
