Siding complete, interior trim started

Outside the house is looking good; finally got all the board & batten siding up plus some shakes up in the main gable. With that, the exterior siding is all done, now we just wait for paint. Good progress happening inside, too. The trim crew was busy installing doors and casings and baseboards today. They were moving fast so I won't be surprised if they move on to windows and crown by tomorrow, though it will probably still take a few days. We met with the lead trim guy to go over closets and other built-ins today so I expect most of that stuff will be in the near future as well.  The tile crew also started laying bathroom floors today (but no pictures of that yet, we didn't want to be in the way). Rusty, our grading contractor, was out there today smoothing topsoil and doing some more fine grading. Still a little ways to go with that but outside does look better.  Cabinets get delivered and install for those starts on Tuesday.  Lots of progress in a short window.

Hello, siding

The sun was beating down right at the roof peak, but

  1. Looks great! I can't believe how level the back yard is. Having seen the property "in the rough," it's just an amazing transformation.
