We had a nice experience at the Havertown (Pa) Lowe’s, Saturday, which resulted in the replacement of the section of soffit beneath our eaves as per the photo. Betcha can’t even tell which section was replaced.
The wood on the bit of the nearly 90-year-old house was found rotted and we went to the store with a particular repair plan in mind, which in hindsight would have been a very bad one.
The fellow we ended up talking to deduced exactly what the problem was and knew exactly how to fix it. He gave us the right materials and perfect instructions, and the result was a project about which we are quite pleased. Frankly, we didn’t even know what a soffit was.
So thank you, Lowe’s guy.
