Siding

Here is siding getting put up.

Interior work

They have been busy inside. Plumbing, duct work, and finally getting the doors and windows in!

October is half over and the weather challenges continue. It snows or rains a lot more that I remember for normal years. The shingles are on and the progress should be more visible after next week as the windows and siding are scheduled (weather permitting) for this weekend and next week. Inside, the duct work is progressing for the air conditioning and the plumbing waste system is in but the supply system has stalled due to other commitments by the plumber. He should be back Monday. The electrician is still restoring power to over 2200 of his customers as of yesterday (10/15/13). I’ve added pictures of the shingles and a video time lapse of the snow storm.

Roofing

Most of the underlayment goes on right before the big storm hits. Logan gets some more digging done on the north side of the house.

The carpenter team finished up the rough in so the HVAC and plumber can start work on Monday.  The roof supplies get delivered on Monday and the installers get to work on Tuesday.

The pictures show the arched window and a shot of the interior.

One of the carpenters said ” for a foam house, there is sure a lot of wood in it”

Front entry, reading room (second floor) and porch roof all ready to go

Roof/front porch

Roof sheathing goes on and the building of the front porch starts.

Garage/roof

Here they are working on the garage, the front porch and they are putting up the roof trusses. Toward the end of the video the camera gets knocked over by wind or bumped by something! But we left it running for a while since you can still see half of the roof that they are working on.
