Yes, indeed, today the roofers finally started. So, after six months of waiting I now have less of a roof than I did after the hurricane. I am certain this is a good thing. They are removing what’s left of the old roof (except the underlying particle board) and hauling it away. They are going to put proper plywood over the particle board. Then tar paper, nails with tin caps (to Dade County Standards) [or maybe screws], then hot mop it. Then it will sit for a long, long time until the inspector shows up. Which is, in theory fine, because God knows when the fucking tiles (concrete rectangles to be exact) will ever show up.
Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!
