schedules were meant to be adjusted



Greetings,

If you ever buy these blank fill-in calenders, they don't have holidays and birthdays on them. You have to fill that stuff in yourself. We forgot about the memorial day weekend, and the gravel pits that we were using are closed till Tuesday so the project is on hold until then. That is O.K.

Today we got the updated drawing for the house and we are going to get them to the Concrete guy and the framers ASAP so that they are ready to go. Thankfully we are not going to have to install a pressurized mound system for a septic, we had an engineer design a system that would work for our 3' of sand that we have at the surface of our property.

The water well drillers will be out here this week. The best thing to do is to have the drillers get in contact with your excavation contractor to figure out the best place for the well. The wedge shape of our lot is going to make it difficult for the drilling truck to get into place to drill the well. The excavation contractor may have to put a temporary pad for the truck to get into place.

The plan for the week is to have the pad ready for the concrete guys by Thursday, and they should take about 1-2 days to form up the footers and than I will go in and do the under ground plumbing, and radiant heat tubing, that will take me maybe a week, then the concrete guys will pour the slab. After that is done curing, then they will come back and form up the poured walls in one day, pour it the next day, tear down the forms the day after that, then we will be ready to do some framing.
