We had the cedar shingles replaced on the front of the house this weekend. Here is an in-progress picture. Of course I would have loved to leave them natural but they don't stand up to the elements well unless you use a solid stain on them. And, in order to avoid the hassle of having to get approval for a color change, we just had them stained the same dark brown as they previously were. Or , a very similar dark brown. Might not have been the exact one. It still looks a thousand times better than before! Of course right after deciding to get this ($2,000) work done, we got the almost $1,000 bill from the plumber and then yesterday our upstairs A/C decided to die (service technician on the way out right now -fingers crossed). Hopefully that won't be a huge repair, as we're also in the process of getting some estimates for some much-needed landscaping in front and back.
