Week 23

Well I am a little late updating the blog this week, but we start with a view of the entrance to Santa Anita, hopefully it will eventually look a little bit more finished.

Here is the X spot photo the strips for the roof tiles are coming along over the garage

 

and another view of the garage portion of the roof


This week they finished all the window openings, they are now ready for window frames. here is a view of the walk in closet and Yoga room windows.


Workers created some of the groves for the tubes to hold the wiring this week


and here are some with the dtubes installed at the top of the stairway



And our parting shot from the right front this week



More soon.

Week 22

Welcome back things are really heating up now, closing in the roof is almost completed. Interior walls and ceilings are starting to be skim coated with a mixture of cement and window openings are being shaped up.

                                                Here's our X Spot photo for the week:


Most of the roof was covered on Friday with rubber seal called CHOVA
 
                                          Trimed beams at roofs edge start to shape things up.


Inside we see how the application of skim coat starts


                                                         Office Ceiling after skim coat

Master wing still not finished but coming along
                                          Here a shot from out upstairs balcony shows how some
                               of the beams need to be hand hewn so the roofline will be even.

                                             Creating wood chips on floor of Master Bath
Here the windows in the garage have been smoothed up getting ready for the window frames
A final shot from the front shows that it really is starting to look like a house!
Well with the rainy season upon us the roof is getting finished just in time, see ya on your next visit.
