Project: Installing Shingles and Tin Ceiling

Contractor Bob Ryles demonstrates how to install tin ceiling sheaths, a Victorian touch for the Martha’s Vineyard project house.

Painting contractor Mike Suarez sprays water-based stain on the home’s exterior, while Bob, accompanied by paint consultant Sherry Hiller, tours the island with an eye toward local color schemes.

Bob and contractor Bob Ryley confer about adding trim to the curvilinear top edge of an arched window. After sheet lead is installed as flashing, Ryley attaches scalloped shingles.
