Wow, what a week! The new framing crew stepped up in a big way and got a lot of catch up work completed. James has taken over as the project manager, which will allow Patrick to apply his talents to the woodwork that has been waiting for him. All of the pieces of the puzzle seemed to fall into place this week, and I’m so grateful!
The original framing crew completed the turret framing this week, and started on the front and back walls of the great room. James will direct his crew next week to complete this unfinished task.
All of the interior framing has been completed for the primary suite, and all of the lower level interior framing will be completed on Monday. YAY! This week all of the window openings were treated with the vapor barrier (red goop) to keep out the moisture. The window guys from Windows, Doors and More also installed the windows in the Primary Suite!!! These are our first installed windows and they look beautiful!
Patrick and Jon were busy in the shop making gorgeous beams for the great room, from wood cut and milled on the property! How cool is it to use wood that grew right here on the property and never left.
I spent time at Granite Marble Specialties and made the final selections for all of the countertops. The stone is so beautiful! I’m especially excited about the Blue Gaya Dolomite that I choose for the master bathroom.
Next week the interior framing will be completed throughout the house, and the deck framing will begin on the deck base and on the roof. The rough in for plumbing and electrical, as well as for the in-floor radiant heat will also start next week. Lots of good things are coming.
Thank you to all of the hands and hearts who are bringing this project to life. We are very grateful for you!
