The kitchen is to the right and dining to the left leading out to the deck.

The light gray material is TPO which is a thermoplastic polyolefin single-ply roofing membrane. Underneath the TPO is 2" of rigid insulation and then there will be 9" more of blown-in insulation in the joist bay.

Before the composition roofing goes on, we had a ice & water shield installed as extra protection since we have a low slope roof (3:12 pitch )

And windows are starting to go in! Here is our first layer of weather protection. Tyvek DrainWrap next up 1-1/2" of rigid insulation.
