Walls Up

Last time we checked in on our full home design project, the exterior foundation was in and the plumbing was being placed into it in preparation for the slab to be poured. When I checked in on progress a few weeks later, a lot had happened! The block portions of the exterior were in place, and framing for the interior walls was underway.

This is a good time to make sure that the homeowner is happy with the overall layout. It's not easy to make major changes at this juncture, but interior doorways could be widened, or moved, and other minor changes could be made. In this case, an upstairs hallway was eliminated and turned into a closet for one of the bedrooms. Pretty simple before the walls go up!

And here is the garage, proceeding at the same rate as the house.

The contractor is moving quickly here! More next week.

Happy New Year!
