Things are happening!   Footings are in, foundation poured, footing drains installed, and grading work underway. Check it out...


Footing forms.

Footings poured with the cement.

After some rain and a few days off, the forms for the walls are assembled and then poured.

Forms removed.  Foundation done, but now has to sit and cure for at least 7 days or else it could bend or crack when it gets backfilled. The black on the cement is the waterproof exterior coating. 

This gap is where the hatchway will be installed.

Basement walls are 9 foot.

Garage!

Now foundation has cured for about two weeks. Good to go now!  Here are the footing drains that are installed around exterior of the walls.

Backfilling away...

Now that it's backfilled, Tom started grading the site.

Look'in good.  Front yard.

Stay tuned for framing which starts Wednesday!!!!
