Things are moving along quite nicely. We think the rough-in electrical should be done within a week. The air handling system rough in should be completed by this Tuesday.

We’re using an environmentally friendly composite material for the front porch decking as well as the two decks on the back of the house.  The gray color really compliments the siding color.

Decking

Speaking of siding… the guys ran out and had to order more. Probably another week or so until all the siding is complete.

We need it to stop raining for about a week or more – along with temperatures in the 90′s – so the ground can dry enough to install the septic system.

The siding is going up very quickly! Tony is working on getting the porches started.

It has been a while since the last post because I (John) have been very busy at the hose working on the mechanical installations and doing all of those little odds and ends jobs that pile up. The HVAC system is being roughed-in – and the Geothermal systems are sitting in storage and will be installed once we are ready. I have almost completed running the PEX plumbing supply lines. The cool July weather has been a disadvantage that working the twists and turns out of the tubing would have been easier on a hot day. The electrician should be back from vacation shortly and the electrical install will be completed. I will post pictures of the mechanicals after they are completed.

Things are progressing quite nicely. The siding process started earlier this week. These pictures are from Tuesday.
