Our house is coming together piece by piece. Here are some things that got done yesterday and today.
All windows, french door in morning room, basement siding door installed.
Shingles installed.
Our fireplace is in it's place.
Today bathtubs, shower pan and water heater arrived. May be it will get installed tomorrow.
Our HVAC and plumbing material is also there in the living room ready to get installed. HVAC installation will get completed in this week.
I have one small confusion. While in framing stage, I noticed in the garage near ceiling there was a gap of about a foot or so between two wooden blocks. (as if they ran out of wood.) Only on the left side. The next day I noticed that the worker had stuffed some sponge like material in that gap and then nailed wood piece over it. It will be more clear from the snaps below. Is this normal? Or is there a better way to do this?

Picture taken from master's bedroom. Since we have walkout basement, our upper level is more higher from the ground than I have imagined. Can't wait till they clear the lot.

Sponge like material. We are hoping to have the pre drywall meeting next week. Will clarify this with PM and our home inspector. |
That is weird. Show the PM.he will either clarify or fix it.
ReplyDeleteyou know songig, we are getting a walk out as well. I don't think I thought about the height from the back windows until this post. Hmmmmmmm, seems like I need to start considering "emergency evacuation" plans.
ReplyDeleteThat sponge material seems weird :-/
ReplyDeleteDefinitely mention that to your PM; otherwise, everything looks great!
