Mommainia Builders on the move

The house is moving along. I got the outside graded, seed planted, and house painted. The inside has primer on the walls, insulation, drywall, mantels, stone and trim is going in.

Mommainia Builders still going and going and....

Going crazy is more like it. I wish I had batteries that lasted a long time. I am so tired. There has been someone on the lot every day. I have not had a day off and have worked most Saturdays and Sunday I worked four hours. When I mean worked I mean putting in insulation, sweeping floors, picking up trash and vacuuming up all the junk the contractors left behind.

Stone work

Mommannia at work but will it end....

I have been working hard to pass my last big inspection. The framing inspection with all the things that can go wrong. They inspect all your big trade rough ins like electrical, plumbing and HVAC. Well the day of inspection guess who shows up to inspect the house? The chief inspector. Oh dear, I thought. He only found two small things wrong. I needed to put a tube around the electrical lines coming out of the house to ensure that the brick did not damage it and I needed to seal up one chase. This took all of five minutes each then I called for a reinspection and passed.

New lot under way

Well, the project is finally under way. Here are some pictures of the lot and clearing.

We had loggers come in for a total of 8 semi-trucks full of lumber. What a mess!!! All done now and ready to dig for the basement.
