Week of July 22nd

Wow. Lots done this week. The roof was completed. The front porch is mostly done as well as the back deck. The basement floor was insulated with rigid foam and the in-floor heating coils and manifold were installed. The basement floor and Patio cement were poured.

Most of the windows were installed along with the fireplace.

The septic system was competed in 1/2 of a day on Tuesday. There is a timelapse video below short with my drone. There are also pictures here.

Week of July 15th

This week had a lot of progress. Finished framing & sheathing the roof. The roofers started. The plumbers put the in-floor plumbing in the basement floor getting ready to pour the floors next week. Front and back walls were built getting ready for windows next week. Xcel Energy ran the conduit for power.

Next week will be busy. Hope to put the basement, garage and patio floors. The septic system will go in next week. In floor heat tubing will be laid down for the basement floor. Power should get hooked up. We may even get a driveway next week.

Timelapse: Roof Trusses

Timelapse for the week of July 8th. Crane on Monday to lift all of the main roof trusses. Framed a bunch of interior details that we cannot see on the timelapse. Framed up most of the overhangs and added roof sheathing.

I changed the time-lapse to take a picture ever 10 seconds. This extends the video to about 2-1/2 minutes per day. A little longer video, but the detail is much better and smoother.

July 4th Week: More Framing

This is a short 3-day week, but a lot of progress. Unfortunately, some of it is hard to see in the timelapse video. The interior walls were finished including the framing for the see through fireplace.

The electric meter socket was installed and is ready for Xcel Energy to bring in power next week or early the following week.

They guys put up some of the roof trusses showing the 12:12 roof line. Really looking great.

Next week, the crane will be onsite Monday to lift and install the remainder of the roof trusses.

Framing and Roof Truss Delivery

This week, the basement bearing walls were put up, the floor joists were set and the floor sheathing was laid. Most of the exterior walls were framed and some of the interior walls were framed.

The first video is a the timelapse for all 5 workdays. The new battery worked good for the camera. It lasted all week with lots of power to spare.

The second video shows the roof trusses being delivered. it was a bit exciting. The delivery truck / trailer could not get all the way to the top of the hill, and ended up getting stuck on the side hill. In the end, the guys did a great job and everything was delivered. Ready for more framing next week.
