Week 6 - The Transformation






I do not know where to start...Wednesday I had a foundation and 3 sides of a retaining wall and now I have a nearly completed framed house. The crew they hired from Phx are animals and basically have framed the entire house in 4 days. They took today off (Sunday) and will come back tomorrow and Tuesday to finish with the inspection set for Tuesday night. I have taken to going by the house three time a day because it has been changing that quickly.

So, Wednesday the downstairs was framed...Thursday, the second story was framed...Friday, the roof framed and the inside started...and Saturday, all the rooms done with some minor touches needed on Monday. The will then begin to sheet the house (I think that is the terminology but I could be wrong).

Windows are set for tomorrow with heating and electrical to follow this week. I honestly can barely keep up but it is really exciting. Terry and Jeanette have made this very easy for me so far and have been awesome to work with. They have a few more lots for sale if anyone wants to be my neighbor ;-) They do great work!!!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the photos, there may be one more entry before I leave for MN and CA for the holidays. I can not even fathom what it will look like when I return...The adventure truly continues.
