Day 55 : Garage


Due to some weather-related delays, the crane for the lifting the roof trusses into place will be on site on Tuesday. Until then, the framing crew worked on the garage.





This is where the porch will be located



We met with the builder today at the site to (a) discover that the hobby room window has been repositioned and (b) to discuss the issue with the main floor ceiling height. There's no chance to change the exterior walls now, but he agreed to install a lowered ceiling (changing some interior walls to 8') with the cellulose insulation sitting right on top of the ceiling as before. The only drawback is that there is some extra lumber that goes into the design and that the house is 1' taller than necessary. This means that the exterior look is different. Still better than having to heat those extra 1200+ cubic feet!
