Well, we managed to secure a "green tag" on first try for the framing, electrical, HVAC and plumbing. The framing crew returned to finish areas they had to leave open for inspection. We are in process of painting those areas.
The metal roof is in process of being installed by Lee Durham who owns Midlothian Steel. All the roofing is on site on two trailers which we chained together. Installation will take about a week.
We have ordered the brick from Acme. It is scheduled to be delivered any day. The brick we picked is called Country French. We evaluated using stone but it was cost prohibitive to use 100% and we didn't like the appearance of mixed stone and brick. I do not have a masonry contractor but called a couple today in hopes of contracting with one.
Canopy Insulation started today insulating the home with open cell foam. This process is amazing to watch. Canopy is the only company in Texas using steel grid to contain the foam in the cavity. Through the grid, there is less waste and the grid forces the product into every "nook and cranny".
Next on the agenda is drywall.
(Attached are some pictures of the spray foam process.)
