Forms are gone!

My husband visited the land this morning to see if anyone was there working, he got there about 9:30, and all the forms had been removed and we have walls!

My husband received a call from the company we thought our electric would go through. Turns out the company we would like to have, service area stops before you reach our house. They say they can put up a post in the middle of our side yard to hold the meter, or we need to contact the other company whose service area our house is in.  We call the other company, they will not come to the property until we have an address, really???? My husband called the planning committee to see if we can get our address, and the lady told me she would let the guy who gives addresses know, and that he would mail us our address. Sometimes you have to wonder about how anything gets done at some of these places! Hopefully we can get our address soon, so we can move forward with the electrical hook up. We had to wait until our basement was poured to even request an address and then a committee member will come and from the middle of your house, give you an address. So now we wait. 

Day 4 of Production & Basement Walls!

Today is day 4 in the production line for our house! I visited the factory at 8 in the morning on my way into work, it was getting the final drywall hung, and was ready to go to the mudding station.  Our electrical was not yet hooked-up, and our roof was next to go on.

I did not have a chance in the afternoon time to visit the plant during production, but I did visit about 5 in the afternoon to check on the progress! The whole house has drywall and the seams have been mudded! All of the cabinets are covered in plastic to protect from the mud, paint, mess that will occur in the next couple of stations. Still waiting on electrical to be completed. Here are the afternoon photos.

My husband had a chance to visit our land this afternoon and they were forming for the walls. He sent me a few pictures. 

When I got home from work, my parents, my daughter and I visited the land!

We are now waiting for the floor to be poured, the walls to be sealed, the home to come offline, and we will be preparing for a set! It is getting very exciting!

Day 3 of Production

Today is wall set and electrical day! Almost all of the walls were set before I got to the factory this morning. It looks totally different going from a flat floor to walls up everywhere! It was awesome to see this morning. 

 

This afternoon I went back to see what had been accomplished, more walls, the electical wires were being ran, and the attic stairs were in! The base cabinets were set in the home, but now wall cabinets were being installed.

 

Afternoon trip to the Factory! Kitchen Cabinets are hung on the wall! Our roof is framed, one half has a ceiling! Moving right along!

 

 

 

 

 

I got a text message from my husband today with pictures of the footers being poured in our basement!

 



Day 2 of Production!

I visited the factory this morning on my way to work. The first floor from yesterday had the heat ducts installed and was getting ready for the plumbing to be hooked up. The second half of the home was started this morning, it was framed floor joist, and had the decking installed.

This afternoon I went back to the factory to get more photos of the floor with the vinyl floor installed, the plumbing through the floor, the cabinets being built.

Last night we visited our land to see if there was any progress on the basement, pea gravel was added to the base, and today they are supposed to start forming.
