Cupola rebuild and garage loft room.

It's been atop my garage since I installed it back in '86......functional not decorative. Only got painted maybe once since then and has deteriorated badly and I suspect leaks a little. House was built in '77 and garage added later. Going to keep the upper part with the louvers.....repair and repaint and build a new base with pvc.
Im at the point where I need to do some needed repairs.... dont want to turn the house over to my sons in shabby condition. Wife is concerned about me going up on the roof nowdays......says Im too old......but I've been doing it for fifty years now and still very confident in my abilities......besides who else is going to do it....not my boys....grown men but not roofers. Finishing a loft apartment/room up there over the garage.... my oldest might be coming back home to live with us. Ill put up a few pictures as we make progress.
