Inspectors

Just passed the plumbing rough-in inspection on Friday, and passed the septic system last week, too! Batting 1000 so far on inspections. I guess I hired the right guys...

Plumbing by Redwolf

Left to right:
vanity, water heater, toilet, tub/shower

Shower hardware installed but no hot water yet...

Outdoor faucet!

Bedroom closet!

Larkspur!

Piñon flowers, and...

Piñon cones!

Plumbing (Out of) My Depth(s)...

Another burst of activity!

Oh My God! Running (cold) water - in the house!

And it drains out, too.
And dig that science homeroom style faucet...

Water and vent pipes fill the wall between the bathroom and the pantry.

Vent pipes... more to come...
If these windows opened, we'd have to move the pipes. But they don't.

The tub/shower.

1,000 gallon septic tank, ready to install.

Tank in (beneath green covers), and distribution field going in.

Only the tank covers visible now.

Two big loads of gravel, for the distribution field, and the driveway,
and the French Drain on the north side of the house.

The distribution field now invisible!

Gravel over and gravel under 4" leaky pipe.

French Drain,
carrying water from the north side, away from the house.

Closed in!

Well, the walls are up, and the roof is ready for tar and sand (a Brai roof), window holes are cut.

The east wall, last wall to be skinned - note the just-completed window framing.

East wall finished.

West wall with evening shadows...

North wall.

Fascia detail - the extra strip at the top is to bring the drip-edge away from the fascia.

Mark cutting windows.

Inside.

And, finally, the 5 window views: bedroom(3), bathroom(1), and pantry(1).
...with actual construction soundtrack...
