Week 34 - Doors Hung

Now that insulation is in, the next big step was to hang all the doors. Since the drywall will be flush with all the door frames with a small reveal around the doors, all the doors needed to be placed in their openings so that the drywall can be put up next to the door openings. We hope to see drywall going up shortly after the thanksgiving holiday.

Heath Ceramics / Tiles

After weeks of waiting, all our tiles were finally completed at Heath Ceramics and we were able to pick them up form the studio.  We were kids in a candy store.  Now we just wait to see them installed.  The last photo shows samples of the Heath tiles as well as some of the marble pieces for the bathroom floors and some shower surrounds.

Week 33 - Scaffolding Comes Down

We hit a significant milestone this week - the exterior of the house was completed and the scaffolding was taken down.  Below are a series of pictures showing the house completely netted and under scaffolding followed by the exposed exterior.

Once the scaffolding was removed we were really able to see the view from all the window.

And lastly, some pictures of the house and the San Francisco skyline taken from Corona Heights Park.

Weeks 31 + 32

This past week all the rough-in for the plumbing. HVAC, electrical and fire sprinkler systems were completed and inspected.  We have now received final sign off on the systems as well as building sign-off by the city.  Now that we have sign-off to seal up the building all the insulation was installed and the the windows were glazed.  Next up....all the drywall goes up and the place starts to really take the shape of a house.
