I had to help my dad take down our porch roof. It was built by some guy who used to live in our house before we did.

(Day 1)

The roof jutted out from our house, and was supported by four metal pillars. The whole outside was made of metal, and my dad and i had to take of the metal to get to the inner structures of the poorly constructed roof. It was actually pretty easy taking it down, considering that it was sheet metal. Did i mention that the guy also loved using sheet metal for building the house? Anyway, after we took it down, my dad and my neighboor went onto the top of the roof, which was no longer supported by a metal stucture on the bottom. The wood on the inside was rotted, and we think that the guy went to the woods and chopped the tree down himself! There were also nails every 1 inch of wood, so there were tons of nails in the roof that we had to take out.

The top of the roof was also covered in metal. My dad and neighboor took that down, and the shingles under it, were all stuck together with old, not dry enough, tar. So they took all that off, and then my neighboors leg fell through the roof!

(End of day 1)

(Day 2)

I went outside, and i had to pick up and put all of the shingles into the wheelbarrow and wheel them to our driveway.

(End of day 2)

(Day 3)

Today, we had to finish throwing away the shingles. We then had to take a whole bunch of wood down to the driveway. After that, my dad and i had to take out a whole **** load fo nails out of a whole **** load of wood. After that, we took the pillars down to the driveway. It turns out, that the main supports, were hollow! After we were done with that, we finished off the day.
