Construction ~ Week 36

The action continues week by week in the new house.  The first few pictures were taken week before last.

The tile was laid in the utility room, back hall, and bath.

It was also laid on the kitchen floor.

I snuck upstairs to check out Sam and Avery's closets.

This weekend more progress was visible.  All the tile is completed and grouted with the exception of the kitchen backsplash.

The tile in the high-traffic areas has been covered, but here is a peek where the fridge will go.

Our railings were finished this week as well.

-The gas company really held us up these past two weeks as we needed them to run gas lines so that the heat/air could run.  The hardwood floors had to be at a controlled temperature for a few days before they could be put down.  They buried the gas tank week before last and finally made their way back last week to run the various gas lines.

-Heating and air was there quickly to get the heat on in the house, so we now have a working gas pack.

-The painters began caulking so hopefully we'll see some color soon.

-The concrete pad out of the garage was poured.

Lots and lots of decisions and phone calls were completed as well.  We're no longer trying to beat Sam, but since we've locked in on a rate, we're in a new race against the clock.
