Windows!

Electrical has been installed and most of the windows placed. Things are moving forward!

More Progress

The deck is making progress and so is the roof. Heating and air were installed last week and electricians have begun their work this week.

Roofing.

The deck runs the entire back side of the house and will round to the front porch.

Backside of house: daylight basement.

Temporary sheeting has been placed on the deck for easier working.
Basement rec area: heating and air has begun.
Kitchen area looking out to the deck.
Stairwell to basement.

Progress

The roof has been sheeted and papered, plumbers have arrived and preparation for siding has begun. Rain, rain go away. But on the plus side....the inside of the house no longer looks like a lake! Next post we'll have more pictures of the inside of the house.

A House

A long awaited project of a new house has begun! Well, actually, it began a couple months ago and the plans even further back than that. We just haven't had time to add pictures or updates. This is a horrible time of year to work on a new house with the weather but the guys are pushing through the cold and rain and are making progress. The hope is for it to be done by Super Bowl. Only two more months to go!

This week trusses were set and they began sheeting the roof. Following that will be a deck over the daylight basement and setting windows. Below are pictures of the project starting with the most recent.

New Site

In the rush to finish up the new website and all the other projects happening with the business and in our personal lives, we forgot to post the new website address. So if anyone's interested in checking it out it's at www.markparadisconstruction.com.

Our plan is to continue to update this blog occassionally with new projects and to link the blog to the website. Stay tuned!

Update

We haven't been updating anything recently because we've finally decided that it's time for a "real" website. We'll probably keep this blog for interesting projects that come along. But for now it's on hold as we work on getting the website up and running. We've aimed for the beginning of June. So keep checking back for the link and the final reveal!
