Having someone like Jani who has knowledge in installing roof domes is indeed an advantage. With that, you've developed confidence and determination toward the project. Anyhow, I have to say that the roof domes stand out even more after having those greenery around. Good job!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.arrysroofing.com/roofing/residential-roofing-1/metal-roofing-tampa-florida/" rel="nofollow">Arrys Roofing</a>Lino Kostershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03888792890289708527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775269441129469643.post-41098992342278753582013-04-25T20:39:24.563+01:002013-04-25T20:39:24.563+01:00Thank you! :)Thank you! :)Heidi Green Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00468184890347695760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775269441129469643.post-83730304326957193402013-04-17T06:12:59.636+01:002013-04-17T06:12:59.636+01:00A plasterer is a tradesman who works with plaster,...A plasterer is a tradesman who works with plaster, such as forming a layer of plaster on an interior wall or plaster decorative moldings on ceilings or walls.

I have never built anything before but with lots of love, enthusiasm and dedication, small miracles are possible. :) The cottage is 'sleeping' now, there is still quite a bit of snow on the roof and around it of course. Last time I saw it (in February), it looked as beautiful as ever. Time to write a new entry to my blog with some photos really, so you can all see. :)Heidi Green Pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00468184890347695760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775269441129469643.post-80718513785137939332013-04-09T08:13:01.715+01:002013-04-09T08:13:01.715+01:00Yes, I was lucky that Jani was at hand to help.

By the looks of it, it is definitely not easy to do, but it came out beautifully and all the hard work paid off. How is it now? I hope the harsh climate and ever-changing weather did not mar its beauty.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.drytechroofingcompany.com/about-us/" rel="nofollow">Lue Madson</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14141184440965711362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1775269441129469643.post-45036963007455729182013-03-20T20:10:50.867+00:002013-03-20T20:10:50.867+00:00You’re lucky because you have Jani who knows and h...You’re lucky because you have Jani who knows and has experience in installing roof and skylights. With him doing the installation, you can be assured that everything will turn out fine. Are all the repairs and replacements already done?
