Almost there!

Here are a few progress shots of the house. Flooring is being installed along with the countertops and plumbing fixtures so just the final touches are left! We will be done in 2 weeks so more pictures to follow then! Hope Construction

Spray foam insulation

Spray foam insulation: In the Clark residence we used advanced framing & filled the wall cavities with cellulose insulation and then used spray foam on the floors over the garage and crawlspace, and in the attic. We lose a lot of heat energy out the floor & roof, and not as much out of the surface of the walls, so spending more on the spray foam in the lids will pay off quickly. Pictures to come of the exterior - it is fully painted, the decks are looking great too! Until next time, Hope Construction.

Windows flashed, Tyvek & siding almost complete!

The past few weeks have been busy for our crew at Hope Construction. The Tyvek is almost complete and the siding is going up fast. The windows are flashed as well. Window flashing keeps the windows tight and acts as a secondary drainage point if anything should leak. Until next time, Hope Construction.

The house is framed & dryed in!

We have made great progress the past 2 weeks. The house is framed & dryed in. The top photo shows the house getting ready for roof shingles. Tim decided to do a bonus room on the 3rd story (see 2nd photo)and it has amazing views of the peaks (see 3rd photo)! The last photo shows the cathedral living room ceiling. Until next time...Hope Construction!

The roof is going up!

This week we made great progress and the roof is getting framed in. The trusses were raised with a crane (see picture above).

Next steps include waterproofing & drying in the building. Pictures to follow...Hope Construction

The walls are going up!

This week the walls are going up & we are framing the 2nd floor! It is really starting to look like a house & to think...it has only been 3 weeks since we were excavating & found the ancient bones! Hope Construction
