The ICF forms for the perimeter walls are now in place. The builder has rented forms for the internal walls and has started putting them up. The updated drawings require some more work around the boathouse to complete the connection to the boathouse. It will be challenging to work in this area.

The builder is planning to pour the first floor walls late next week.

When the drawings were being updated we added a small pump/storage room between the house and the boathouse that will have its own exterior door.

We started discussions with the plumber and were told that we would not need a sump pump in the house since the septic system has a pump system to feed the field. The plumber also suggest that we reconfigure the small bathroom on the first floor to put the shower under the stairs. We agreed that it would be a better arrangement for the room.

After many tweaks, the final specifications of the windows and exterior doors are complete and the order has been placed. Delivery of the windows and doors is scheduled for early in the New Year.
