Step 3, painting:


Step 4, putting up new gutters:


Still have a few more gutters to hang, but now we've got the "hang" of it. Put some soffet vents too, in under the eave, to increase air flow. Have to find a big container of some sort to hold the water in too, and figure out an overflow plan.

Project #2:

Before: (with old gutters)


After:


Not bad for 2 non-"masons"
