Roof, concrete porch, more plumbing and wiring

Newest outside changes: shingles on the roof and concrete under the front porch. Concrete was poured last week (there will be flagstone added later), the roofers were hard at work Saturday. just a bit more work on the back side of the main roof and the shingles on the playroom roof. The front porch will have a metal roof, still to come.  The plumbing inspection was last week so we have bathtubs and showers full of water right now. There are a few corrections to be made on some drains and valves and then the plumbing rough in will be complete. Matt continued work on the low-voltage wiring - we spent some more time this weekend reorganizing/tidying up some of the runs and cleaning up the main wiring closet.  Everything should be ready for (read: safe from) the insulation and drywall crews. After walls are up, we'll go back and drop some of the things Matt prepped and pull all the guts out of the wiring boxes he installed in the closet.

The "brains" of the house

lots and lots of wires bundled in those bags waiting for
spray foam insulation to be done before we drop them

  1. Love the color of the shingles. It's going to look nice with the siding. Mara looks like she's ready to receive company!! Photos don't communicate the extreme heat--looks like it should be cool and refreshing....
