Raise The Roof (Literally!)

This is the phase of my parents' garage construction/home remodeling project where the roof is lifted from their existing garage and placed onto their newly constructed detached garage. The original garage will have another story added to it. My father, who is retired from his construction company, designed, built, and organized this project himself after recovering from a stroke. He needed a little help with this portion of the project though. :)

I think renting that heavy equipment was more expensive than building a new roof...

The old man was in the construction business. I'm sure he traded favors for the crane time.

Brilliant salvage operation. I'd like to read the story of how this bright idea was hatched. First response must of been something like, "What have you been smokin'?"

NICE!!!! Did a very similar project a few years back but with floor jacks, 6X6's, lots of planning, and patience!! Also HAD to pound it out quickly and secretively over a weekend because just maybe someone didn't get building permits. whoops. I know this is from a few years back, but NICELY DONE!
