House Problems....

This past fall was a challenging time for the Asay family.  It all started with our master bathroom window leaking.  I'd noticed the past couple of years a moldy smell in our master bathroom.  I thought it might be because our exhaust fan wasn't working correctly and didn't think much of it.  Then, this past fall water started leaking through the window and down our drywall in the bathroom.  So, since Jarrad and I have always hated our bathroom windows we thought this would be a good time to get them replaced.  And, while we were at it, we decided to put new shake on our house.

We ended up getting a quote and were on our way to start the project when our contractor noticed water damage.  He said, we would need to tear off some stone to see the extent of the damage....

We were not prepared to see the pictures below!!!!




This is the top part of our garage


This is the front of our house where are bathroom is...

 This picture was after they re-framed and put all new osb up 
 Now it's getting the stone put back on

The final product

Basically, we ended up having to tear off the whole front part of our house and re do it!  All because the builders who built our house didn't seal around the flashing.  We would've went after the builders, but they were out of business...go figure.  It was quite a mess and super stressful and expensive, but I LOVE the new look!! 

And, while we were dealing with this crazy mess, we found out that our renter who was supposed to buy our house in Indy decided to bail out and gave us a months notice! Talk about stressful!  We were blessed enough to get it sold in a month, but took a huge loss on it.  In the end, everything worked out and we feel so very blessed that it did.
