Rather than go all white, we gambled a bit and decided to be Panda-fie it with a black trim.<\/div>\n
Left photos are before, middle photos are the left photos magically gimp-ed white to see what it would look like, the right photo is the after:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I also hired pros to fix a couple of leaks in slate roof. That roofer on the left is likely the only slate certified roofer in the state. His hammer is a 80 years old!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
