Recently started an addition to the tractor barn. Roof is still open over one corner, a lot of snow blowing in.

While brushing the snow off this yellow one I noticed the hood is damaged.

Been real satisfied with the crew doing the building till now.
 
You are real lucky if that is all that happened. I had an upstairs addition put on my first house and I had several large holes in the downstairs ceilings. Any construction crew is there to get the job done, being careful comes second.
 
What happened to the paint between the first and second pics?. How did a work crew cause damage? Im not following you here .
 
sorrey ,although , you are rite ,,, however , you just aint gonna get a lot of sympathy, here ,. ,..I have a b-I-l that may have the same values you have ,.. everyone should be perfect ,,. in this imperfect world
 
The dent does not look recent to me, imho. The constuction crew should not be liable for what you make them work over. Something is always going to fall, a hammer, pry bar even a joist. Sorry I don't share your opinion but thats the way it looks from here. gobble
 
well look at it this way it looks like an easy fix , and it didn't happen to the one that's already been painted up nice and pretty. Could have been a lot worse......
 
Thanks Sam, my wife designed it and is the driving force to get it done . I built the older barn for my tractors and it is stuffed full. Now we can store lawn mowers, rototillers , leaf vacuum and extra car and truck with comfort.
 
When I put a house in town on the market the realtor lined up a roofer for me. She neglected to tell me they were coming Monday morning. They stripped the roof with my triple white one year only convertible sitting in the garage with the top down (a car I showed). The house was old and had slatted boards for roof sheeting. The inside of the car was filled with rusty nails, tar paper, and three layers of shingles. The realtor learned some new things that day.

It wouldn't be different if you had no idea they were coming. I figure if you are using a building under construction you have to be prepared for something to happen. Heck, the way they build metal sheds now you should always be ready for a strong wind to take it down. At least is wasn't freshly painted.
 
Old dent. old tractor. can be repaired in 5 minutes with hammer and dolly. Maximum 10 dollars worth of repairs and I don't think it is new either.
If this make you sick what does someone shooting your best pointer feel like.
GET A LIFE
 
Don't know how old you are, but if something like that makes you sick, you're in for a helluva rocky life.

Like someone else said, ten minutes with a hammer and a dolly and you're good to go.

One time when a garage was changing oil in my pickup, the pickup managed to fall off the hoist while it was all the way up. Thankfully, no one got hurt. The guy that owned the garage had been one of my sister's boyfriends in high school, so we actually all laughed about it and turned it in to the garage's insurance.
 
I'm a building and remodeling contractor. I take the utmost care to protect my client's property. With a project like yours I'd inform my client that he would have to remove everything from the work area. Anything that's left in (or under) the work area would be covered with a tarp and subject to possible damage (which would be their problem, not mine). You gotta use some common sense. You leave a tractor where someone is building a roof overhead, it's susceptible to something damaging it.
The damage looks old to me as well. At any rate a paintless dent repair guy would make quick work of it.
If that dent is the worse thing going on in your life you've got it pretty good.
 

I'm with everyone else here, but will add that it is very likely that if a worker did it he could easily have checked and not seen the dent and thus did not say anything.
 
I am not going to say anything cause looks like you done got beat up enough.

That sure is a nice looking building though. I am plumb jealous!
