Welcome to your kickoff video where I detail the benefits of the lot I recommended. We will have a perfect fit with the floorplan you love and a minimum amount of traffic. The path of the sun is also a huge benefit for you.
The wooden forms have been put in place and the trenches for the foundation have been trenched. The thicker part of the trenches also have cables that run in a grid pattern. The cables have nutts on the end of the cables so they can be tightened.
The sewer pipes are in and so are the water pipes. They are buried in the ground and wrapped in insulation. Its pretty windy on the job site. The sewer line is the angled pipe that is connected to the city sewer system. The wooden boards are what holds the cement in place when its poured.
We are in the middle of the wind and rain, but needed to give you an update on your build job. The job site is prepped and ready for cement. The wooden forms are in place to hold the cement and all the pipes are wrapped in insulation. The moisture barrier is in place and ready to go as well.
We are still waiting on cement and I have no idea why we have not poured yet. Our sales guy is out of town and we have had so much rain that we may have a huge backlog for the cement guys.
The cement foundation has been pouring and they have dropped all the wood for the home on the build site. There is a temporary sidewalk poured, but it will be removed after initial construction. They have framed the first floor and begun moving in the decking for the second floor and should start framing it soon.
The second story is being framed currently and the roof is also going up. We have rain on the way all day tomorrow. The bricks have been dropped on site. Soon we will have the roof, windows and siding.
They are finishing up the framing of the home and they are adding the polimer siding or thermosheath. They have also added the plywood where masonry will go. They will have the windows in soon and the roof on before we know it. We have had a ton of rain recently, so once we get the roof, windows, siding on the home will then be sealed from the weather.
The roof decking is in and the roof moisture barrier is on. Soon the shingles will be installed. The windows are in and the siding is up as well. The back porch is in and you can get a good feel for how the house will look in the future. It is always fun to see the framing on the inside of the home as we move from framing to be fully enclosed from the elements.
The roof is on the house and we are officially sealed from the elements. The windows are in and have a poly seal on them. The bricks and stone are dropped and the rough out is done on the inside of the home prior to drywall being installed. We still have one or two little things to do before we drywall, but we need the city inspector to give us a green tag. You can also see the details on how they run the wires and plumbing.
They have really started sealing the home useing foam tape, expanding foam and sealed boxes. Even the pipes are sealed in foam wrappings. We really don't have extreme cold, but we do have very hot weather and thats the man use of our home insulation.
