No photo today, but just wanted to report a few more updates. Our excavator is back this week to break up the sidewalk and dig about eight feet down in front so that our services (water, sewer, etc.) can be connected to the house. Wouldn't you know it, it's still all rock under all that snow, so what would normally take about a day somewhere else will take us more like three days. The excavation resulted in a bit of damage to the Platon membrane (dimply plastic layer on top of the waterproofing material), but it will be fixed.
Our builder and designer met with a potential supplier for our interior stairs, and came away with a lot of confidence in him and his product. His price is very reasonable, and he seems like a very knowledgeable guy. We're looking forward to getting his detailed quote. We may get our great stairs!
Our windows and framing package have been ordered, and the doors are soon to follow. Our builder anticipates that the framing should be complete in about a month. We're all hoping to make up for some lost time, and he's ready to go at it full steam, weather permitting, of course.
On the weather front, they're calling for 10 centimetres of snow tonight, and 10 more tomorrow. Didn't that groundhog see his shadow, or not see it, or whichever it is that means SPRING is supposed to be coming?
More to come soon.
