Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yep. in fact Menards sells a product very close to what we have. There is a local contractor that has done that work. I have his number.
That's what I meant by metal. Looks like tile to a passerby. Only thing about metal is they can be very loud in rain depending on structure and insulation under them
 
Ever think of metal? Comes in all sort of contours/colors and last 50+ years.
These are really close to our clay tiles.

scrambled eggs, sausage and cinnamon toast. Mmmm
Why is it I can crack 6 eggs into a pan without breaking a yolk … when I plan to scramble them?
Mmmm sausage.
Here's what I threw together, home made ham salad, and eggs with stouffer's spinach souffle and swiss

Sounds typical for me too.
Wife is up and we are getting ready to go out for BK....well now make it an early brunch.
Mopar buddy coming over at noon to help me do some work on the Barracuda.
Almost done...need to quit the "Gee I should do that to while I'm at it" and just get it done.

I need to get moving. Need to install another sink. Same house I did one a couple weeks back. Was trying to be there by 11. Not happening. Still gotta get my tools together and in the car. Normally most would be in the back of the Magnum already. :(
 
We have some leaks as well but the house was built in 21' and it still has it's original clay tile roof. The bad thing is that very few want to have anything to do with it. View attachment 1715281484
Better that they are at least honest about it. Keep looking. There's very little to go wrong but the roofer needs to figure out how the tiles interlock and hang. The one on the cross estate had the managers and regional people all stumped. My coworker went up when the maint chief was away and they figured it out while fixing the box gutter.

Honestly that's often where the problems are - the sheet metal in the valleys or flashing. Don't let anyone do a cheapy repair with flashing cement or other muck. Then you're pretty much totally screwed.

Yep. Some complex stuff in old houses. Gotta understand how it went together. Labor was good and cheap when built. Today the answer to every leak seams to be more f'n caulk.
