My new house has a steeper peak then I may be willing to climb on.
I was going to do it today, but have some reserves.

What did you pay? What did you have done?

I hope you don't hire people who put illegal street signs on corners. People who do that should be boycotted.

Yes. Very profitable for those who do it. It's usually not their main gig though

Not sure exactly the cost, but $300 sounds like a bargain.

Just do the bottom half?

If he had fewer squares, I don't think he could get the car in.

I think the price is more than that usually, but I've been a customer for years and I let them use pictures of our house in some of their ads.

Loyalty discount. Very nice.
Ya, I was thinking of something like 1k and up depending on the size of the job.

Not as young or flexible as I used to be. Above the garage is a steep pitch.

This an artists drawing, not my real house. Just the same design.

Lol I thought the driveway looked off.

Did you have to pay the guy to draw your house?

Did you frame it and hang it on the wall in your living room?

No, from the developers website. I uploaded a better version of the house because of the discussion
