Some updated pics from today. Not a lot to show inside as they have heaters and fans going to dry the mud. I'm guessing a lot will be happening Monday. We are supposed to have appliances delivered to them on on the 15th, along with light fixtures etc.

The exterior...



Deck is basically done...



View off the deck (the real reason we bought this lot)...



View out the kitchen slider...



Kitchen



Kitchen and eat-in area



This is the view coming in from the garage. Basically you are in the mudroom, can see into the bathroom on the left and the eat in area of the kitchen straight ahead where the heater is.




A couple more views of that drain pipe, from the kitchen sink down to the outflow pipe to septic. Maybe the clean outs make more sense now? I think the questionable one in the post above isn't a clean-out so much as just a plug at the end of that pipe. You can also see where the basement is plumbed for future bath in the last pics.







XLT: I think the drain pipe placement makes more sense now that you can see the foundation. The foundation wasn't visible in the other picture. I'd have to frame around the drain pipe regardless because of the concrete. It was hard to see that in the other picture because it's a walkout basement and I didn't capture the foundation.

His sewer line installation is referred to what is called a hung sewer. Notice where the sewer exists the wall not the foundation floor (basement is lower grade than his sewer outfall grade). If bath/shower/sink and or toilet is installed an injector or grinder pump will be needed to get wastewater
to exit grade. Remember shit rolls down hill.

Front of the house, you can see the propane line. It is very small for the amount of propane I think we need. I guess propane doesn't need as much as NG as far as supply line size? We will have water heater, propane range, propane heat and propane to the deck for the grill.

if your right handed you might want your dishwasher to the right of your sink. your drawing shows it to the left.

are you doing both built in oven/microwave and a range/oven? if your doing oven/microwave built in,have you considered just a range top with cabinet space underneath? this gives a richer look to house than a slide in range/oven combo.

overall looks great and like others have said cant believe how fast its going up. I have been in the builder business and this one if going together quickly. looking forward to the finished product. you guys look like you did your homework and went with good long term upgrades and good working spaces.

That's just plain nuts. I've seen a huge number of small additions or even large kitchens/remodels take longer than your entire house.

Hell one remodel I worked on was over 9 months. Granted it was featured in some highfalutin home design magazine and Washington Post writeup.
