This view shows the front as seen from street.  The original gate was about 5’ wide but caused the supporting post to sag extensively.  The fence also sagged due to the weight and the posts rotting at the bottom.  To provide a 5’ - 6’ gate the gate was done as two smaller gates that open either in or out.  This was a much more satisfactory solution and should allow the two posts to easily support the weight.
The following pictures are from a customer that was going to be selling their house in the near future.  They wanted to get some repairs done and paint the house prior to the putting the house on the market.  They had several soffit locations that had deteriorated and required new material.  The affected areas were cut out and cut back to good material.  New material was then installed and all minor gaps filled.  They were then sanded to yield a smoother surface for the painter.  All soffits used ½” exterior grade plywood.
This was on part of the upper story overhang.  It happened to be the worst of the affected soffits.  The material was cut out and replaced and some new screen moulding was installed.
These pictures are taken from opposite sides.  The before picture is taken looking out to the gutter while the after picture is taken looking from the gutter to the inside.
This area covered from one side of this “L” shape area to the other.  The majority of the problem was from the middle of the soffit material to the fascia.  Fortunately none of the fascia was affected on any of these areas which saved money for the homeowner.
