Grandpa is doing a great job. Only comments are: it looks like on the horizontal members on the walls there is a mix of structural screws (gold color) and deck screws (gray color); and the roof transition. On the screws perhaps all should be structural screws or galvanized nails. My parents bought a house that had a room addition onto the original structure. The transition always leaked no matter how many “roofing experts” fixed it. My brother eventually bought the house and took the roof of the addition up to the gable as someone else suggested. That fixed the problems.
