A Week of Inspections

There are no new pictures this week as nothing new has happened that you can see.

We did however pass both the electrical inspection and the framing inspection last week for the new addition.

Windows are set to arrive early next week - stay tuned.....

The Giants are Headed to the Superbowl

This week in the addition they widened the door between the old basement and the new basement so that the heating duct was not taking up most of the doorway. They also started the wiring and the installation of the lighting fixtures. There is not much to see, but here are some pictures:

The Giants Win ! ! !

I was so busy celebrating the Giants victory over the Cowboys last night I forgot to update the blog.

Here are some pictures of the progress made last week.

They installed the new Bilco doors providing easy access to the new basement.




The roof was installed on the addition.


The framing was completed in the basement and they added the venting for the heat and air conditioning for the basement and the new room above it


In this next picture you can see the stairs leading to the Bilco doors


The final picture is from the current basement looking towards the new room. They cut through to the new basement and added a new wall on the left side (or at least framed the wall).

The following picture is from in the addition looking back towards the house:


A temporary wall was put up to insulate the house as best as possible until the windows arrive later in January for the new addition. This is what our family room currently looks like:
