Fireplace insert was installed over the weekend. I took pictures, so check the photo gallery. It was so odd to watch them install the insert because it's huge. It didn't look like it was going to fit in to the space that was cut out. But 3 strong men put it in there and it fit perfect. Now they can start installing the wonderful natural stones we have selected.
Oh, and the fireplace grate is here. This thing is a hand finished solid steel and cast iron log grate. Wow it is so beautiful. The pictures I have of it right now are good, but it is still covered in cellophane.
As of today the plumbing is roughed in and electrical in roughed in. The inspector has to come and look at the roughed in work before this stuff can be covered up.
We applied for the water meter and water tap on Friday (today is Monday.) That will be installed soon. The pipes will run under the property, and now we have paid to tap in to that line. So that will happen soon. Since this will be a model home we only have to have running water in the kitchen, then of course in the facilities in the office.
At this point I can picture living in the house, the bedrooms and kitchen have a place and a shape. The home has a face. Before it was more kind of "sticks". I can see the size of the bedrooms and the closet. I can see the beautiful open timbers.
