Let there be walls!

This is a bit of a delayed post. We went out this weekend and we officially have basement walls! With the storm last week, it was quite a nice surprise! Our PM texted today to say they should be finishing the waterproofing today. Again, after another snow storm on Monday, another great surprise today!! So we sit and wait for the next storm to plow through any minute, ice to say the least. And yet another looming forecast of snow dump for this weekend. Man, didn't we pick a great winter to build a house or what?! It is what it is though.....

So here are just a few pics, the lot was so ridiculously muddy we didn't dare venture to the back of the house.




The first one is in front of the garage and the second one is in front of the future front door!! Wow, the garage looks huge and the house looks tiny! But so great to see some progress even throughout the awful weather- kudos PM Rich!

Also kudos to SR Chris-  he went to bat over the NVR fiasco and all is well. We are going with our Allstate insurance also. A little higher quote but they cover A LOT more and the amount they will take off to bundle- it all evens out with other competitors. Until this weekend, maybe..... if snowpocalypse doesn't strike!

  1. Awesome. It's slowly coming together for you. I am still waiting on them to issue us our permits so they can begin building.

    1. Our permits took forever! But no worries, it will all be here before you know, it just sure doesn't feel that way when you are waiting!

    2. Well the good news is they started moving dirt on the lot next to mine and it looks like they will be doing ours soon as well.

  2. Looking good. I love your wooded lot. Are all of those trees going to remain?

    1. Thanks! Yes, the trees will stay with the lot. We took this lots because the trees go back about 4-5 feet that are 'our' property and there was the incentive on it- i guess people want a yard and not trees. So we plan to clear just a little to have a bit of a yard- one day, but there will def still me a nice amount back there.
