It was a busy week with most of our crew back at the job site. Yes, it’s still raining, but we think the worst of the damage from the flooding is behind us.
The great room roofing has been completed and the turret roof was started on Friday. It looks GREAT! Thank you Gil and crew for the great work!
Ryan, Jason and the team at Tughan Electric completed the electrical rough-in for the lower level by the end of the week. Monday they’ll move upstairs to work on the rough in there.
The plumbing rough-in was completed and we passed the inspection. Yay! Thank you to Kyle, Tyler and the crew from Lakeside Plumbing. You guys are so good!
The framing is continuing, with the framing crew just keeping in front of the other trades. The framing WILL be complete soon. We’re going to celebrate that accomplishment!
Our original framer misread the plans and installed the two gigantic windows in the kitchen more than an inch too low. In other words, if left as they were installed, the cabinets and counter tops would have met the wall above the bottom of the window. Oops! Therefore, the windows were removed, re-waterproofed and they’ll be reinstalled next Monday.
I spent a lot of time working with the cabinet company to finalize the designs throughout the house. We should be ready to order them early next week.
Months ago, we found the perfect door for the front door, custom made in Montana. It arrived this week and it’s beautiful!
Avdo at Perfect Temp completed the rough-in for the air handling system for the house. We’re installing a Zehnder air system. Thank you Avdo and team.
One of my favorite snow ball lights was ordered months ago from China, and it finally arrived this week. The pieces are all coming together. I’m so excited to see it in a few months!
Overall, a good week. I feel like the most difficult part of the build is behind us. I’m excited to see the next few weeks and months unfold into something truly beautiful. Thank you James, Patrick and the rest of the team for all of your help!
