Day 14 - Foundation Passes Inspection - Friday We Pour 70 Yards of Concrete



It took us 14 days to tear down the old house - remove the trees - grade the lot - and lay out the foundation. All the pipes - conduits - steel rebar - and forms are in place. The city signed off at 2PM today - and we ordered the concrete.

Gary says he expects to be closed in - in 2 or 3 weeks. 


The inspectors are doing core sampling to make sure the sand fill is compacted enough.

They take the above core samples and do something with them

City Inspector Steve Tabor is posing with Gary Shiver - our builder. Gary is smiling for two reason. First - the foundation prep passed with flying colors - nothing to change. Second - I just gave Gary a check.
