Roof work

We got a few straight days of predicted sun this week, so the roof replacement has begun. Not only are they raising one side of the roof to make it flat, but it will be structurally very sound to hold up that future roof deck and as many friends as we can fit up there! The blue tint is the sun shining through the blue tarp protecting all of the work in the house that's already been done.

A lot of work has been done on the inside; eventually, the outside will catch up.

Also, now that the concrete has been poured, the framing is finally going up in the basement. Ryon assures me it looks quite extraordinary when you walk in to an actual floor. No more dirt piles in our house!

Concrete poured

Good news this week. The concrete floor in the basement has been poured. It looks a little cloudy in the photo but will be sanded and polished since we're doing polished concrete floors in the basement (Ryon won that battle).

They also continue to clean up the brick walls that we will keep exposed. This is one of the fireplaces.

A few more photos of the HVAC system.

We also got our new roof permits, so work should start on that soon. Roof deck parties? I think so!

Another update

Work continues. We're hoping that the concrete floor in the basement will be poured this week since the city inspector approved the underground plumbing. Sorry, these photos aren't as exciting. Hang in there and eventually we will get to real walls, cabinets, etc.

In this one you can see the duct work run in addition to the light cans, etc in the ceiling.

That's all for now. Hopefully more soon!
