Update 7/25

---Updated pics on Construction Tab at the bottom---

No grading yet - they are trying to get the county to raise the sewer in the front so they are on hold until they get a decision about it.

They fixed our fireplace, just waiting on the brick masons to come back and fix the outside of the fireplace where the vent was.

Found out the vanity that was sitting in the family room (was supposed to be in Bonus Bath) was there because when we switched the bonus bathtub to a shower it took up more space so the vanity wouldn't fit - they had to order a smaller one.

We went by last night and saw that they were doing some serious prep for painting and almost all of the molding was in place.

The tile surrounds are now in place in all bathrooms.
We have our interior doors up but.....almost ALL of them have serious water damage from being in a garage with open windows and all of that rain so the PM had to reorder.

The columns they put in the family room (square) are not correct - they were supposed to be the round columns for this plan so they have plans to fix that soon (I hope).

We realized our front door was in a box in the garage - we looked at it and it wasn't right. Long story short - they are reordering the correct door so hopefully that will arrive in the next week or so.

They came out and acid washed the brick - it became apparent that possibly the brick masons kept taking brick from the same pile and didn't switch it up because there are serious patters of brick lots and also, the grout is not consistent...The PM is going to have the brick mason come out and try and get the grout coloring fixed (at least on the outside of the morning room).

Also, we noticed water damage on the ceiling just outside of the bay window area in the living room - PM said it's probably because of when they acid washed ; I hope that's all it is because we still only have plywood for a bay window roof.

All that aside - it's looking great in the house!

  1. The tile surround looks great. Good to know your PM is re-ordering the stuff that needs to be changed. The brick thing sounds like overlook on the brick masons part, hopefully they'll make it right!
