Rafter from the Rear

Here is a rear view of our house from the park. We decided to make the rafters for the top roof shorter. They put the rafters in at 600mm - the spec said 525, but they looked too long. You could not possibly see the sky. I got them to reduce it to 400 (a reduction of 125). This compensates the high windows being 40mm shorter. The angle from the bottom of the high windows to the end of the roof is still quite low. Absolutely no possibility of rain getting in those windows.



The carpenters worked back today. At 5pm the neighbour came out and demanded they stop. There are tight restrictions on working hours in this suburb.
