The progress on the house can be summed up by a single world... Slow...
The fireplaces are getting plumbed... slowly... The fire protection sprinkler system is in but not inspected. Since we decided to use foam insulation it has been nothing but a challenge to convince them that the pipes need not get insulated since they will be in conditioned spaces.. We hope to get that inspected and then get the framing inspection next week... God willing...

In the mean time here is the progress on the roofing....














The back of the house is currently getting shingled today. The roofer is a one man operation so it is taking a couple of days but I must say he is deliberate and I do like the end result.















As you come up the drive, the roof looks and is complete...














The front of the house is also done...Roof is a color pretty consistent with the rest of the neighborhood. The shingles are 30 year Tamko Architectural.














The south side of the main roof is done... You can also see the framing for the master fireplace.













The inspector is happy with the progress he is seeing...
