Roofing continues

The roofers are making great progress. The house is completly dried in and they are on to the shingles now. The shingles go very nicely with the stone and add a lot to the overall look of the house.

Fireplace stone

The stone arrived today for the kithchen and greatroom fireplaces. The pieces were heavy but everything ran very smooth. The masons will be installing the fireplace stone next week. The stone looks great and will create a nice feature once installed.

Roofing Begins

Kudu roofing arrived on site. They will begin the final dry-in today as well as shingles on the upper level.

Grading and Site Cleanup

Tim and crew are preparing the site for winter.  They are bringing the dirt up around the house to almost final grade to keep the water draining away from the house. They are also cleaning and organizing the site before snow fall.

Mechanical Room

The mechanical room is coming along nicely. Josh and crew will be spending this week and the next installing and hooking up all the equipment. Currently they are hooking up the geothermal system.
