Day 24 - Insulation




Friday, Nov. 14th - insulation was put throughout the new construction AND the wall was taken down between the kitchen and the new upper room - WOW what a difference that makes. I was gone while it happened (getting my driver's license renewed) but Forrest was here to help and supervise. I came home to quite a nice surprise!!!!

Day 23 - More Work





Once again there were numerous workers here working on HVAC, electric, plumbing, framing and more.

The plumbing for the half bath in the laundry area was finished, HVAC was finished,
exterior doors were installed, the stairs were completed and the windows in the three seasons room were hung.

Day 22 - More Chaos







Today HVAC, electricians and framers were here.

Windows and doors were delivered and the windows were installed.

The stairs were delivered and partially installed.

A majority of the electric was put in.

Day 20 - Chaos



Everything was quiet on Monday (thankfully).

Tuesday was a different story. The electicians, plumber and roofer were here working. They also came to measure for drywall and insulation.

The basement floor was jack hammered up.

Rubber roof was put on top of the 3 Season Room - a deck will be constructed on top of the roof.

A new hot water heater was installed.

The electricians started pulling wire.

We also covered my studio with plastic. Unfortunately it suffered a lot of dust from the cutting of the cement floor so we are trying to reduce the possibility of more dust.

Our New View



I was able to take some pictures of the view from the new upper room.

Day 17 & 18



I'm running behind on keeping the blog updated because things are moving quickly.
November 8-9.

Forrest removed the soffit because they will be removing the wall between the kitchen and the new room next week once the windows and doors are installed.

Day 16 - Addition of 3 Season Room





We had an additional concrete pad poured for a future three season room. We decided to go ahead and have it built now so they constructed it on Friday.

The basement floor was cut for the half bath that we are adding.
