Let the project snowball begin...(wks 2 and 3)

Our motto for this project from the beginning has been "do it right the first time."  Unfortunately that has lead to some major overages and change orders. In the end I think we will be happy with the changes in scope, but in the short term our budget is not!


Excavation for the entry foundation revealed no foundation drain - so why not waterproof while we are here?

ALL the way around the house. New drains and new drainage.


We might as well wrap the foundation in a waterproof membrane, run new
piping for the downspouts and backfill the castle moat with drain rock.

And while we are at it let's bury the overhead phone and cable!

And let's run it ALL the way through the back yard to fix the natural spring problem too.

Why keep any drywall when it just gets in the way?


Do we really have to keep the brick? Okay, I guess we will just cover it.
