Windows - at last!

This week saw the installation of all the windows and doors. Some are without glass - particularly the larger double glazed ones as they are just too heavy to lift into place. It does mean we have got rid of all but one of the tarps that were draping the structure and more of the house shape can now be revealed. Next week should see the glaziers starting to install the last of the glass and cladding will commence. Plasterer will be here in two weeks to plaster the exterior cladding and one week later the gib board (sheet rock) will go in. A mad frenzy at the moment to get all the wires and plumbing in place. The elctrician has pretty much finished wiring, the plumbers almost .... and I am dragging up the rear with one more day to get the security wiring in. All that remains is the TV, phone and computer wiring before they line the house. Painted the first coat of stain on the new cedar front door and that will dry for a few days and be installed next week. Colour is great! Completion of the house may drag out to about the end of January.
