I just had a big hole dug in my front yard. It was the first time I'd seen my wife more excited about a tractor than I was. We're adding a separate entrance so that we can add a hair salon in the unfinished part of the basement.
While we're digging the hole anyway we're enlarging our porch and putting a room under it. Since we're tearing up the rest of the basement in the process of adding the extra room under the porch we're putting in a bathroom, moving all of the water utilities (pump, water heater, water softener) and replacing the old furnace.
We've subcontracted the concrete, plumbing, and some of the electrical. I'm doing the gas line for the new furnace and water heater, and I have a brother in law who will come and help us do the framing and most of the rest of the electrical.
The pictures are about a day behind. The concrete guys have the walls all framed up now. It's supposed to get into the single digits tonight, so they'll poor tomorrow afternoon. Once they get the walls poured they're going to cut the holes for the doors. I'll have about a two day window to get anything in through the doors that can't go around a corner. I think the only thing that fits that category right now is the tub and surround. After they cut the doors, they are going to put the porch cap on.
