They poured the concrete for the garage floors today. They also poured the floor for the area between the garages. This is the larger garage.
This is the smaller garage.
They also poured part of the foundation for the back porch and the back sidewalk. They put a plastic cover over it to protect it from the rain.
Our cats like the new concrete.
They are ready to pour the concrete for the two garages and area in between tomorrow. If it isn't raining they also plan to haul the concrete around our house to pour part of the foundation for the back porch. They have the boards so they won't get bogged down in the mud if they pour the back porch foundation.
When we were up on the Jenga stacks a lot of the downspouts fell off. They reattached this downspout so they can dry out the siding before they paint it.
They put the re-bar in the floor of the small garage. They plan to pour the floor of the garages on Friday.
When they pour the garage floor they plan to haul concrete to the back of the house for part of the foundation for the back porch and for the sidewalk to the lower back door. Some of the footings they need for our back porch are next to our current septic tank. We may need to get the new septic system installed soon so they can finish our back porch.
All the siding is installed now. They will paint the new siding soon, maybe as soon as next week.
They put re-bar in the large garage. They also put up boards where the foundation did not rise to the level the concrete floor.
In the back of the house they started digging for the foundation for the back porch.
They did a lot of work on the house today. They broke up our old parking slab and hauled it away. They also removed the rhododendron that was next to it. Another thing that is missing from this picture is one of our cars. It was stolen from the parking lot where I work today.
If you look closely you can see a light in this garage. The electrician has been busy putting in lights and outlets in the garages and "walk" space.
The new water inlet to the house and the new sewer (septic system) outlet were installed today. They disconnected the water and sewer for awhile today. This is a picture of the new water inlet. Part way up the wall is a shutoff valve. I decided not to include a picture of the sewer outlet.
They started marking out the area to build our new back porch.
Sometime recently they finished the support under the chimney. I'm not sure when it was done.
