Roughing In!

We are officially at the rough-in stage! I know this because Schumacher asked us to release their second draw of funds which was due after framing was complete. Anyway, onto the photos!

Hello, future commode. You don't look like much yet.

OMG they cut through the roof! That's so gonna leak!

This is our future kitchen sink. That wall behind it is actually the frame for the kitchen island.

This is the master bath. Two sinks are going in there and this is the plumbing taking shape.

Yes, we crawled into the foundation. It's actually nice and clean down there for now. No snakes have moved in yet. You can see the plumber has some work to do down here.

Creepy underside of the house. Hope I don't have to go down here often but if I do it's easily nine feet tall at this end so I won't hit my head.

That's some sort of distribution box in the trusses up there that then goes to heat/AC vents on the ceiling of the second floor. To me it looks like a giant alien creature with tentacles has taken up residence in our attic. Will I ever sleep soundly in this house knowing what lurks in the rafters?

There's two vents way up in the ceiling of the great room.

Hey, they've done more work in the big shower of the master bath! They have a lip on the edge to keep water in, they've added insulation to the outside wall there and some sort of water barrier to the floor. You can also see a heat/AC vent in the floor right outside the shower wall.

This is a big return for the heat/AC system. Eventually it'll be clogged up with dog hair. Bet on it.

And if you look closely you can see one of two air handlers hidden up there in the attic. I could not get closer because the pull-down stairway hasn't yet been installed. Maybe later.

This is the return for the second floor, up in the ceiling of the hallway.

And this is more plumbing details. For a sink. One can assume there will be shutoffs in there somewhere eventually.

That's it for now! The HVAC, Plumber AND the electrician are scheduled to be working today and roofing materials just showed up, so more exciting pictures are on the way.
