Completing front flagstone

Thom was in today to complete the front flagstone.  I'm really glad Danny and Marlen went for the lower pad rather than just a small interlock landing.  It really ties the house to the front yard.  Beautiful!

Flagstone Base

Thom's crew was working away at the flagstone prep today.  They poured the 6" concrete base yesterday, and have started laying out the flag and setting the copings along the stairs.  The front of the house is going to look great when they're done.

Basement flooring, landscaping starts

Danny was quick to pull the trigger on the basement flooring, and he picked a good one.  Juvee started installing the floor in the basement so we get a good finish when he installs the jambs and doors.


Meanwhile, Thom was back at it.  We are adding a concrete base and flagstone to match the porch as the landing between the stairs and the driveway.  Also on task is the interlock border on each side of the driveway.  We'll be paving in about a week and a half.

Landscaping and Carpentry

While Juvee continued to work away...


The landscape guys came to prepare the front landing and porch for flagstone and an interlock border along the sides of the driveway.

Landscape design

We're getting to the final strokes on the house exterior, so working with Danny and Marlen, I've put together a rough mock up (Etobicoke hasn't seen grass this green this year!) of the exterior elements of the house.  We should be good to start the driveway and interlock over the next few weeks.
