Building the Alabama House, Post 97 of 1435

Those are random numbers.  I don't know what post this is and I don't know how many there will be.  I feel like this blog should be called, "Building a House with the Days."  :-)

On Saturday I got these pictures:




He said, "House garage and boat garage ready to pour concrete Monday. The black plastic is a vapor barrier to keep moisture from making the slab sweat .  We also lace the slabs with wire mesh and rebar to ensure if there were any cracking it would just be a surface crack and not a structural crack. A little over kill but worth the effort in the long run."

I told him I was a fan of overkill.  :-)


Then I just got these today (Tuesday)



He said, "Both garage slabs poured finished and concrete sealer applied . Foundation  gravel and interior drains installed. Next install anchor bolts in block work with concrete . Then framing crew will be here in 7-10 days"

 The framing part will be SO COOL.  It will start really taking shape and start looking like a real house.  I can't wait for this part!!

Tell me about it! I am so grateful God connected us with them. This poor guy will be so glad when we move there in a few months so he won't have to do this anymore. ;-) Seriously though, he lives right down the street, so he's only spending an extra 10 minutes or so on it.
