It's Raining, It's Pouring...

The amount of rain we've gotten in the past two weeks has been unbelievable!  They were supposed to start putting the roof on the Wednesday before last, but there was a delay in the roofing materials arriving from New Hampshire... and then the rain started- torrential rain!

It's made such a mess out of the place!

First floor-

Second floor-

Attic (this was the least wet, they had put a tarp over the main roof, so that helped), but it was still dripping down the stairs at times.


I was worried about the electrical wires that were out there, we were able to pull them into the basement stairway landing-


I'm most upset about the plaster ceilings in the main house.  The water travelled in and has stained/leaked in the kitchen (will be the dining room)

And the bedroom-


Looks like we'll be replacing those in the near future.  :(

Our contractor has been over a number of times over the past two weeks- trying to fix a gutter so less rain came in, and wet vac-ing out the first floor a couple of times.

Today was the first day that it was really dry enough for work to take place, but we came home and no work was done.  More rain is forecast for the weekend, so hoping they get the roof on there before then!  So frustrating!
