Feb 2 – Second floor exterior walls and roof trusses up

All the second exterior walls have been erected and the roof trusses have been installed. Work is also proceeding on the first floor internal partitions. The supply line feeding the electrical panel is in. The backfilling around the house has now started. Unfortunately the geo-tech is requiring that a rock mixture is used for the backfilling – our builder was hoping to be able to backfill with free material.

Our builder is now wanting us to make a whole lot of decisions about materials and colours to be used. We are meeting with the electrician tomorrow to go over where switches, receptacles, light fixtures and electric heaters will go. Our builder wants to get the roofing done soon and have the trades start next week.

The new webcam is up and running so hopefully we will get some pictures of the progress as seen from outside the house.
