Stairs, electrical and HVAC ready for inspection!

With our inside stairs fully functionnal we can really get the 'feel' of the house and are almost set for HVAC, electrical and framing inspection this Friday. Our garage has been poured and we had fun carving our initials and drawing pictures that are now 'there to stay'!
Insulation will be next week and Steve has arranged for the drywallers to work between Christmas and New Year's.
Next is the HUGE task of finalizing paint colours and tiling!

Deck frame is done ...

Lots has happened in the last two weeks - most of it inside and not exciting to photograph but here is the frame for our deck which will be finished over the winter so we can use it as soon as the weather gets warm. They have poured the concrete for the basement and done all framing down there to prepare for finishing down the road. The rough-in electrical & low voltage ( Stereo, alarm, etc.) will be completed on Monday as well as the Geo heating and cooling hooked up. The stairs are coming this week and we are set to start insulation next week. After that drywall and painting end of December/early Jan. and we hope to make our Feb. move in date.
