They were supposed to start the roofing last Wednesday but the framers didn't finish the roof till Thursday so they put all the roofing materials up there Thursday. They didn't do anything thing Thursday because it was crazy hot. It was the first 100 degree day we've had thus far. I don't blame them for not wanting to be up on the roof. I know I wouldn't! They finished the roofing on Friday just in time before a big storm hit. Thank goodness.
We went out Saturday and walked through and we have most of the plumbing done and they have started on the duct work. Yay! So here are lots of pictures!

I hope our windows are like that! It makes it so much easier to clean!
ReplyDeleteI know I'm so excited about them!
DeleteRachel, the windows are awesome! It does make for easier cleaning! I hope we get them too. And still love the brick steps. Too cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wonder if they are a Ryan Homes standard feature. I don't remember being given the option for upgraded windows. haha.
DeleteI am going to check with our SR! I would love to have those windows! I am not the cleaning type person so every little bit counts! If not, I will be hiring maid service. I hate cleaning grout and I don't do windows! lol However, I am willing to do them if they look like those. lol
DeleteWow! They are moving so fast!
ReplyDeleteHope the plumbing went well. One tip I can give for plumbing, if it’s not too late already, is to not use galvanized steel. You often see galvanized steel mixed in with copper plumbing, with nothing more than a thread of sealant or Teflon plumbing tape to separate them. It can be trouble-free for years, but it might also corrode quickly as soon as the connection is tightened.

Selecting what kind of material you use for your plumbing will definitely have an effect in the long run. Steel has a tendency to corrode, while PEX piping can be a good alternative. PEX pipes are more burst-resistant due to its flexibility to expand and contract, and it has a shut-off valve for each supply line, which will definitely make it more convenient for you when you have to do maintenance or repairs.

I agree with Carmella, although I would prefer plastic pipings, since they are usually made from recyclable materials and are quite resistant to corrosion. These are two benefits that are not mostly appreciated with plastic pipes.
