Roof! Roof! Roof!

Things are coming along very well.  The framers are 99.9% complete and the plumber has started.  Electrician will start in about a week.

The following video was taken while standing in the living room, panning from the deck, through the kitchen area, out the front door, past the corner fireplace, through the master bedroom wall, out to the view.

Framing has begun!

Framing started this week.

The floor trusses should have arrived yesterday (Friday) but didn't.  As soon as they arrive (Monday?) the framing crew will continue.  We were surprised how much they had achieved with all the rain we've gotten in the last couple days.

Concrete Complete

They poured the basement floor on the 22nd.

We ordered a colored concrete for the garage floor.  That was  poured the following Friday.  Then they put the lot on final grade.

Wood should be delivered by the end of the week!

Some Progress

Well let's see, what's new since last I posted?   They poured the lower level walls.

And sprayed them with water-proofing.

And did some preliminary grading.

Then the plumbers came and did the in-ground drain plumbing.

If all goes well the Inspector will pass the work and the concrete lower level floor will be poured this week.  Then comes the framing!

So far we have been happy with the builder.  Especially the foreman Matt.  He keeps us up to date and very much in the loop.  Has listened to our concerns and communicated well with the subs.  My engineer husband really appreciates that :)

Aaaannd it begins....

The footers were dug about a week ago.

Yesterday they poured the concrete in.
