All of the exterior siding has been painted, and drywall has been staged throughout the interior in preparation for hanging.

The siding is being painted while drywall is being delivered.

Returned from a week in VA to find much progress outside.

With tropical storm remnants from Harvey and Irma passing through, it’s been pretty rainy for nearly 10 days. There is still water seeping into the crawl space, but gutter installation should solve this problem.

Meanwhile, on the inside, insulation is complete.

It’s been a while since anyone has done inside work, despite passing inspections, but insulation has begun. Chris is by almost daily to check on things.

Yay, the inspector has come!

And while we were waiting for him, outside work continued…

Soffits being installed and eaves being wrapped

Siding components wait for installation

Porch posts being wrapped

Vents for crawl space are ready to be installed

Interior work has stopped until the electrical and plumbing inspections are done. In the meantime, they are piddling with some outside work, like installing the metal accent roofing above the garage. Materials for the soffits along the eaves are waiting in the garage.

The garage floor has cured and is now covered.

Plumbing and electrical rough-ins are complete. See video tours of house and crawl space on CD for more detailed visuals on exact location of wires and pipes within walls/ceiling.
