Tile and Tin Have Arrived
5/2/2005 7:00:00 PM
Finally we have more than one trade at a time working on the house. The framers are done for now (have to fix the stairs and shearwall the ceiling, but that will happen later in the project). This week we had work performed by:
  • Roofers
  • Sheet Metal workers (the Tin Man)
  • Pest control
Slideshow:  Tile and Tin Yep, the permanent paper is now on the roof and they delivered the roofing tile too.

The heating ducts are mostly installed and much of the roof flashing is in too.

The plumber is almost done with this phase of his work: we have both incoming water and outgoing sewage pipes.

The pest control company finished their spraying of Boron. This is a non-toxic substance that drives away termites for many years. It is approximately as expensive as tenting the structure but it is preventive rather than reactive.
