Day 120 – Inspection Joy!!

I know that I don’t need to say this but we have been crazy busy lately. We are racing to get as much as possible done outside before the weather becomes too cold.

This weekend, we finished the east facing wall of the house. It is amazing!
The soffit and fascia guy (same one who did the roof) came on Saturday and worked like crazy. He brought along this great scaffold that not only made his job easier but also enabled R, his dad and two of our amazing friends J and S to continue to make some significant progress on the cement board. All of our help have been amazing. J and S not only came on Thursday afternoon but Friday and Saturday as well. We didn’t even ask, they just called and said that they were showing up. We have incredible friends. Anyway…


The soffits are great, they are black and done!!! There is a tiny section that needs to be finished off but they are waiting for some metal that had to be ordered in. So, almost done.

The siding is incredible. The panels look amazing and the vision that we had for what our house will look like on the outside simply came to life this weekend.


And now, for they other, big, huge excitement….our insulation/vapor barrier inspection passed!!! This is huge, it now means that we can get drywall and begin (if it is not too risky to put into type) the beginning of the end. Our drywallers come on Saturday and I can’t even begin to describe how great this thought is…

Stayed tuned!
