Stucco and Aluminum

Eddie, the specialist guy from Elstructures stucco, started installing the box window cladding today.  It's going to be a great complement to the front facade when we're done.

Meanwhile, George's guys were back working on the front porch roof and some odds and ends.

Even the the front roof pitch is really low and kind of hard to see from the street, it does look great (I can assure you! :-)).

Narrow roads...

The poor neighbours.... when I arrived this morning, I sighed looking down the street - lined both sides with trucks of my trades.  It was one of those perfect storm days where I had a ton going on, everyone working well, but there was only so much room on the road (we like to stay parked on only one side of the street usually!).

So, 7 trades today....

1) Mason's working on the East side wall
2) Aluminum guys taking advantage of a hole in their schedule and some free scaffolding to work on
3) Plumbers - doing the rough-in work - installing mixing valves and bathtubs
4) HVAC - running the gas lines and venting for the water heater
5) Framers - continuing the rough-in carpentry
6) Electrical (though not for long) - tying up some odds and ends for the inspection tomorrow
7) Tech guys - installing alarm wire, speaker wire, ethernet and central vac lines!

Wow!
