Well it was time to replace that old skylight in our cottage so I collected all the supplies I’d need and set to work. After two days of working non stop I got the old window out, the hole reframed and widened. Removed some of the old shingles around the hole and put the new skylight in place. After careful reading of the instructions re-shingling
and flashing went fairly well.
Unfortunately I was unable to fix the two short shingles from the original window. They wrapped up over the peak and would have involved a lot more shingle tear out. So for now I left them intact.
Now its back to work and rest up for the next project.

This weekend we were able to complete the exterior paint and do those last minute things like hang a toilet paper holder and add a latch on the inside so you can lock the door and for the most part the weather was with us.
There were some set backs however as Friday night brought rain and destroyed the first coat of red paint we had put on the door. After which we brought it inside and it was given another 3 coats of red on Saturday. Sunday being final assembly day, I think it came together rather nicely.
Finally! We’re finished! This project took 6 weekends of effort from hole digging to hanging the moon, but at last it has been completed.
See all the posts, from start to finish.
What’s next, how about that pesky skylight…
