Metal Roof

The metal roof has been installed.  It took longer than expected because the manufacturer cut the trim pieces incorrectly.  And you can't put the roof on until the trim pieces are in.  So, that was a couple week delay.  We also had to install a standing metal seam roof instead of a corrugated rusted metal roof (that I really wanted) because the solar panels could not be attached securely to the rusted metal roof.  I think the standing seam metal looks fine.  The roof material on the porches is still the corrugated rusted metal.

Porch Overhangs

The porch overhangs are in!  I love how these add some visual detail to the elevations.
 
This photo also shows the rusted metal fascia trim along the roof line and porches.  There are two windows on the left side (bedroom) since the first one wasn't in the right place.  Instead of covering up the "mistake" window, we left them both in and ordered another window:)
