    Woo Hoo! Passed the frame inspection!!

    I have been very busy, working 2 jobs, and doing a home renovation. The house extension passed the frame inspection, and am now ready for the roof to go on (Top part starts Saturday). Should be to lock up in a few weeks! We have not had a kitchen since Dec 4th when I started the demolition. I am about a month behind schedule, but I was not planning on working 2 jobs either. Lots more work than I expected, but am enjoying it.



    Thanks for letting me crow!

    Ken

    Thanks DirtDawg. I put the roofers off for a week, and painted the eaves before the guttering and roof go on. They should be back on Saturday to do the top part of the roof. Then need to have the scaffolding removed before the lower sections can go on.

    Cheers,

    Ken

    I did spray the eaves with a cheap airless sprayer. Not what I would have liked to use, but didn't want to hire one for just the eaves. The wind picked up later, and I had to stop, as it was going everywhere ( i.e.) over to the neighbors. Have done some coats with the brush, and looks much better. Will get some photo's tomorrow, as i will be on site.

    Cheers,

    Ken

    Now that's an extension! Looking great.

    I can feel your pain, we were without a kitchen for a little while too, but worse still was when I reno'd the (only) bathroom and hit a snag and was forced to change tack part way thru. I had to use the shower stalls in the workshop for 2 weeks, gave the boys a giggle.
