We have been working on our house since early summer. It has taken a long time because, as we removed siding we uncovered rot, which we fixed. My house is stronger, better insulated, and I am poorer than last summer.
The neighbors have been watching and one decided to do some work. I was glad because their porch is falling off the house. But what they are doing is putting boards over the rot and painting.
A month later, their house looks pristine. New paint, new side rails. and if you don't look too closely you won't see that the porch is still falling off the house. And the new soffits hide the rotten wood really well.
My house inches along.
I plan to stay here, so it is worth the time to do it well.

This is what I always say, if doing a job, then make sure it is done well...oh I am also not one for moving too quickly on projects..I tend to take my time a lot.
