Well it’s week 19 and the project and work continues. This week the contractor finished up the roof connection from the new house to the Garage/Bunkie. The bathroom, kitchen and laundry room exhaust fans were ducted to the exterior.
The electricians finished up the rough-in including the Coax and Category 7 data cable. The old electric box in now laying on the rear deck with temporary feeds to the Bunkie and garage sub-panel, the generator box now has the temporary feed and some of the outlets in the new house are active for the contractors. Electrical inspection is scheduled for Monday and the Dominion Energy will be notified that were ready for our Service upgrade to 400 AMPS. We even installed one telephone box to get the line to the base station of the wireless telephone..
Final walk through of the structure included some additional blocking here and there for the preparation of sheetrock.
The insulation contractor comes on Wednesday. Were using open cell foam in the 6″ interior walls and roof and closed cell under the floor.
Now that all decisions are made with respect to the rough-in were going to steal some time for a brief visit to Glenn and Kimberly in Easton for our annual 4th of July week get-together.
We are now at the end of week 12 and things are progressing according to schedule. The roof should be completely dried in on Tuesday or Wednesday. There is just minor framing to complete on the interior including the framing for the gas fireplace insert.
We seeing more progress now that the ceilings are defined 11′ 10″ in the great room and 10′ in the dining area. The StormGuard rubber sheathing is also being installed of the T&G plywood on the roof.
While were snorkeling in the Grand Cayman, our crews are hard at work here at the Cottage at Creek View.
