Basement Walls

The walls are up and just setting. They still have to do back filling but they should be able to start framing in the next week or two.

Blue Beast

The basement got poured today at the lot. Not that you can really see it but its under all the tarps. I was surprised they could pour the basement in the cold temps but its good to see no standing water in the basement.

Shitters full!

So we have a port-a-pot on the front lawn not that many people can say that. Looks like they are starting to move on the basement, hope this rain/snow we got today doesnt delay progress very long.

I know where the hole is now!

Well the basement is dug and ready for wall forms. In the next 2-3 weeks we should have a basement poured and be on our way. It really feels good to see some progress start on the house!

We have a dent!

They finally started on our house today. There is a dent in the middle of our to be basement and the driveway is dug and filled with some base gravel. It looks like they dug up some of the back yard though to save the good top soil and are going to fill it with some clay from the basement area and then recover the back yard. Hopefully they dont take away all that good soil and just fill the rest of the lot with it.


This is the first dent of the basement.

The driveway looks like a good spot for a hoop!

Tear Drop

Recieved an email today letting us know that due to the winter warning for Tues. and Wed. they have pushed our dig date back to Friday the 8th.

Please stay warm

Got an email today letting us know that the digging on our house is scheduled for Feb. 6th weather permitting. They let us know that it just has been way too cold outside the past two weeks when they wanted to dig. So im charging the camera and praying for warmer temps.
