Meeting with the Contractor

Monday evening we met with our Contractor and he provided us with a breakdown of numbers for the completion of our home.  This will include: Basement, Garage, Porch, Well, Septic, Driveway, Sidewalk, and hooking up the home. 

We have to obtain our permits before we start anything, to obtain permits the land must be in our name.  Our meeting for the land is Thursday April 18th.  Once the land is in our name, we get the permits we need, and give the contractor the go ahead to start lining up the work.  It is getting very real, exciting and stressful at the same time!

A breakdown of what the contractor will be doing.

Basement 
Excavating, back fill, final grade, concrete, insulated interior, egress windows, drain tile, sewage basin and pump, plumbing in floor for future bath, sump pit, tar exterior walls, stairs, and lights.

Well
Septic

Garage
Fireproofing wall connected to home, building attached garage, pouring garage floors, and a pad in front of garage, garage door, and two exterior doors.

Driveway
Sidewalk from garage pad to front door

Porch
Concrete porch floor, vinyl posts, vinyl railing, building entire porch structure attached to home, and shingling entire front of home.

Gutters


This is the just of what the contractor will be doing to finish our home.  We have very specific details from him, as I would suggest everyone ask for so you understand what your contractor will be doing for you and how much it is going to cost.
