About Me

I wanted to thank everyone who was interested in my house construction. Despite how much I hate blogs this would be the easiest way for me to share the progress. No talk about me standing in line at Target or other stuff no one cares about. Just construction, Good and bad.

Supplies and Orders

Just got back from another Lowes run... make that 25 total for the project. I had to borrow Lauren's car for this one. Can't fit the 10' PVC & Copper pipes in the Passat.

On Saturday my plumber Mike is coming over to install all of the plumbing vents and water supply lines. I'm going to be his apprentice for the day. I think I got all the stuff we need (assuming I purchased the right stuff) except Lowes was out of a specific copper fitting size. I'll have to make trip number 26 at some point.

The past week has been a lot of ordering. New laundry sink, floor drain for the shower, recessed light fixtures and a few other things. I'm just about ready to order the tile. I picked it out last week but one tile is a little pricey and I'm going to see if I can find a less costly alternative.

This weekend I plan on finishing all the rough in plumbing on Saturday. Hopefully also replacing the main water supply cutoff too. Sunday will be demolishing the steps to the basement (which are pretty terrible) and the brick below this window:



 This will be the new pass through to the back room until phase two starts... who knows when that will happen.
