Sheetrock is complete! Next up is plastering. The garage doors are installed and the front porch is nearly complete. Also noticed they installed the pressure tank for the water system.

Enjoy the photos!

PS: Can you tell how warm it is now? Hint: look at the jacket Linda is wearing

WoW!!! The front porch deck is nearly complete and they’ve started on the 2nd floor sheet rock. Check out the new shades in the rear guest bedroom

Today lot’s of different board was delivered. The plaster board was delivered and stacked in all the rooms. Also delivered was the material for the front porch, mahogany slats for the deck and stair treads as well as the cedar posts. The rough electrical is now complete including a set of pipes that run from the basement to the attic for future running of wire (very nice suggestion). The exterior siding is also nearing completion.

After touring the house John and I walked the neighborhood loop - approx. 1 mile - not too shabby.

Looks like they are done with the spray foam insulation. I think they still have to come back to do the basement ceiling insulation (fiberglass) and the bathroom walls. Oh and check out the damper control on the furnace (blue box in 2nd to last photo).

They’ve started to spray the insulation!

Also, the gas piping is installed - at least to my untrained eye

We gave two more tours of the house on Sunday just as the next storm started (although it didn’t dump nearly as much as they were predicting). Pete stopped by on his way to Waltham and Davide and Karin stopped by on their way home from CT.

Photos from Friday here.

We scooted over for an early morning (7AM) tour around the house before the snow. Plumbing inspection was completed on Tuesday and it looks like electrical is moving right along too. In the basement the furnace is installed and they are working to complete the duct work.

Mom came for her tour and enjoyed seeing everything take shape.

The rough electrical is started as well as continuation of the plumbing and HVAC duct work. Note the metal plates in front of the plumbing to prevent nails and screws from penetrating. Also note the electrical wiring attached to the floor joists - the wire and stab do no sit proud of the 1/2-inch strapping.

The siding has begun to go up as well as construction on the front porch. Inside the rough plumbing continues. I tried to following everything with the camera, but it’s kinda difficult. I put a caption on as many photos as I could.

Enjoy! Photos here!
