5-14th, 15th, 16th ELECTRIC AND BASEMENT

The 14th the electrician was busy at work. 

The 15th he was finishing up the electric and I must say how clean and neat the electric looks.  You know that they take pride in there work.  It really shows. 

The basement gravel was spread out neat and covered with plastic.  I assume its getting close to concrete. 

We went out today to see if anyone was there and the concrete was poured in the basement and garage.  Pretty cool!


5-8-13 FRAMERS AND PLANT LEDGES

The framers where back out to fix a few things (minor things). They put in my two plant ledges in the main room. They look good. The roof is done and he had a  helper and finished it today. It really look goods.

DAY 2 FOR THE ROOF

 


5-10-13 ROUGH PLUMBING AND CONCRETE

Today we went out to meet with the plumbers to go over where we wanted a bar sink in the basement and go over the rough in for the bathroom downstairs too.  We talked to him regarding the master tub and the installation. The plumber was putting in the pipes in the ground in the basement before the concrete today.

The other group of men where there to get the garage ready for concrete.

We had to leave early that morning so not sure if the concrete was brought in. We are heading to Cincinnati to watch the Reds play the Brewers Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  So we will be surprised when we get home to see what was done.




5-7-13 WINDOWS AND ROOF

Today we met with the well person who will be doing our well. The roofer was working right along. The windows where all set in place. More lumber was being delivered. We have rain moving in this afternoon so I'm sure the roofer will be back tomorrow. Hope the rain holds off so he can finish.
