Floors and Sheetrock are truly the beginning of the end; it means you have passed your rough inspections and your insulation inspection, and you are permitted to 'close up the walls'. It's the first time you really get a feel for your new space. I've got a few thoughts on how to make it go smoothly, and what to be on the lookout for...

So sorry I haven't gotten a new episode out to you guys! I've been absolutely slammed on site. I am capturing everything and will be back to editing sooooon, but I wanted you to know I'm alive and we are making INCREDIBLE progress...just a few weeks till final inspections!

I’ve gotten a lot of great feedback on the various 3D models I’ve created for my Firehouse and Loft, so I thought I’d show you how I go about creating them. Spoiler Alert: it’s super easy with the right tech.

The spiral is out and the new stairs are framed up and functional!

It can feel like you aren't making any progress after you see the framing go so quickly and then nothing SEEMS to be happening...its called getting stuck in the walls...but you aren't actually stuck. These are all the components that will run your home...each light requires a wire, each sink a water line and a drain line....there's a lot to do. Let's dive in!

THIS is the LAST day that it's CHEAP to make changes on your job. Anytime you change your mind after this, with little exception, will wind up costing you more money. If there is anytime to be present during a full build day at your project, this is the one. There is no substitute for being able to answer questions as they arise and make changes that you want or need prior to the walls going up.

There is no substitute for passion. Problems arise constantly on a construction site, its how you (and your GC) handle them that makes all the difference!

The time has finally come...we're starting the physical construction! All the work you have put in up to this point will inform how smooth your job runs; not to say you won't have hiccups, cause you will...its construction. But the more leg work you put it before this day WILL dictate how smooth this job runs.
