This week has been full on at Style Trader HQ, aka my house. We have had builders and electricians in and out. Replacing our leaking roof, which I would be more inclined to call our water feature as opposed to a leak! We are now waiting for the rains to return to ensure that the "water feature" is no more.
Whilst the roof was off, as it is a skillian roof,the electricians had to be on hand to put in new LED down lights (expensive but far more energy efficient than the normal old down lights) and some new fans, yes, crazy I know fans in winter you're thinking, but we had to take advantage of the roof being off to get them in for next summer. And finally we had the entire back wall of our living room removed to put in some new Stegbar stacking doors. Which have made an ENORMOUS difference to what was a rather dreary boring room.
The builders sussing out the most dodgiest of home renovations from the previous owners.
AND they are in!
Now to get the room painted, some new flooring inside and deck out back!

The roof is an important part of the house, so when problems arise, it's best to contact the experts to handle the job. It's great that you did just that. A truly nice thing about having a new roof is that you will feel at ease that it will keep you safe when rain comes. Good going, Lisa!

A roof is a home's primary defense from the elements, so it's good to hear that you finally got your roof fixed. Seeing as you had lights and fans installed, I assume that the leak didn't cause that much damage. Here's to hoping that the repairs stick for when it rains. -Nelson@Royal Roofing and Siding
