The first-floor walls are up. Master suite is on its own level and it is decked. The second-floor deck is half done as of last night. So today, weather permitting, we will start putting up master suite walls and second-floor walls. So far it has been extremely important to be on the job site. Our prints had some errors on them that caused some confusion. But nothing major. They start every morning at 6 a.m. sharp. I have only been able to beat them to the job site once. Usually, I have to stop at Lowe's and pick up materials. We had a no-interest no payments for a year promo, so I have been buying quite a bit from them.
While I am on the materials subject, I should mention that again I wasn't able or didn't want to break a load apart and count every piece. We fell about 10 pieces short on band board Monday. I called the structural company where we purchased all of our I-Joists, LVLs, and band board. They said I had everything I needed. I said no way, you didn't deliver any band board with the second-floor load. I finally said I don't give a s*#% why it isn't here I just have to have it to build my house. So he said he would call me back. Sure enough, he called back and said it would be "re-shipped" on the first load out the next morning at no charge.
So far we feel everything is going pretty good.
