October 21, 20169 yr the siding installers used 2'' roofing gun nails and when the siding went up on the other side of this wall you can only guess how many hits the panel and array controller took... this is after it was all brought up to operational speed... repaired the main panel (the main breaker was missed - somehow) but the sub-panel had to be replaced replaced the buss bars to the main and repaired one feeder... luckily the feeder took the hits inside of the breaker box...... y'all know what had to be done here.... dig up the foundation... waterproof.. add french drains and parge/re-point the interior.. do we mention - haul off all the construction debris???... lets fix the roof too and add flashing while we are here... now this was cute... the Z flashing was upside down... so you know where the water went and what it did... the drip edge came up short too...

They banded together, stole a truck, robbed Home Depot blind and then began really living the dream. Owning their own business and making lots of money. Makes you wonder don't it?
