Framing Day 10 - Roof Goes On

Had a nice talk with our PM this past Friday.  Rough trades are in there working now.  Roof is going up today.  Mid next week all of our rough mechanics will be in.  Late next week we'll be getting insulation.  Next Friday drywall will start.

I officially informed Ryan and NVR Mortage that I'll be using my own title company.  This will save me $1,300.

Also, confirmed with my PM that he'll allow me to bring my home inspector in for the pre-dry wall inspection.  He said that it would be fine to do so.

The focus of a pre-dry wall inspection is on conditions that will not be visible after drywall is put up, such as unsupported point loads, missing or inadequate squash blocks, damage to window frames, missing draftstopping, bowed studs, bowed bulkheads, missing joist hangers, plumbing not flush with the wall surface, plumbing that is not adequately supported, structural damage resulting from HVAC or plumbing work, house wrap that is damaged or improperly lapped and taped.  All sorts of stuff I know nothing about.  The goal is to avoid major defects in the house.

Roof is going up.

This roofer did not like getting his picture taken.  The glare he gave me was clear.
