Perimeter walls and a "roof".
We're ready for plumbing and electrical rough in.
I've got almost all the pex pulled for the radiant.
I'm tired of crawling in the crawl space for sure.

looks great Steve. Are you saying the house is 4 weeks out or do you actually have a child due in 4 weeks. Congrats either way. Considering your idea of a remodel differs slightly from mine and oh say most anyone else's, I just wanted some clarity on the child comment.

Finally new pics.
I've been so busy with work and the house I haven't been on here much.
So, we're all framed up inside, the roof is on, two layer of building paper on, most of the windows in, rough in plumbing complete, front porch in progress, pex in for the radiant.
I'm acting as the electrician and am a bit behind schedule but it's coming together.
We're still hoping to move back in April.

Is that plumber a member of the Lollipop Guild or is that your kid? Either way he does good work.

Very Nice! I am impressed they are using cast iron piping for the drainage system. Is that code?

cast is code. 10k extra!
Stucco siding. We're utilizing a rain screen so, two layers of building paper, 1/2" pt plywood fir strips, paper/wire lathe, stucco.
It would be dry for eternity.Steve

Well onward we go...
I'm finished with electrical rough in, inspection on tuesday.
Plumbing rough in is complete so we're ready for the framing inspection.
Rain screen is on and as soon as it's dry stucco starts...

Time has been flying by! We're getting close to moving back in!
Scratch and 2nd coat of stucco are up. We're about 14 days away for the color coat...
We're all insulated and rocked....
Veneer plaster will be finished tomorrow....
Tile in the bathrooms is complete...
The addition to the garage gives me space for a "shop area"
and room for the camaro once I get rid of the fridge and table saw...
I've been busy plumbing away on the boiler...
Now for doors, trim, finish plumbing, electrical, cabinets and flooring.
We'll be moving in a month hopefully!Steve

I just caught this build.
I have always heard that there were rich guys buying homes and then tearing them down and building new homes in their place.
I would love to talk to more about how this works like details from the banks side, or cash side or insurance side or lien side or permit side.
Tell me more about the 'rain screen stucco'
I live in New Mexico and am very familiar with stucco, two layers of paper and lath, but am not to familiar with the furring strips?
I love home builds, in my next life...
