My stucco guys are doing a great job!

 

How many coats are needed? Two?

 

Getting back on this one, supplier is coming to roll the standing seam in the morning. 14" wide by 33' long for the upper roof using clips because of the length.

 

Steel cant deck.

What kind of ceiling?

 

Gets a V groove prefinished 1x6 T&g from Woodtone. It's going to be a transparent white. Called 'Irish Cream'.

It's backordered can't get it until July 2nd. We're leaving July 3rd for son's wedding. Home owner was very cool about it.

As for the corner, We discussed the L shaped drop and yes that was our final decision to maintain the flow.

That "L" jog on the left is... interesting. Is that just to preserve visual continuity of the runs between posts?

 

 

not our best day but this is my current project...tomorrow will be starting a new deck for a client! BTW! nice site yall have

 

i will try and keep to topic! My current project probably wasn't acceptable but obviously on my own fault! Most firefighters i know have a second job and i am also a sub-contractor and licensed. Will be more focused on job tomorrow! enjoy your day!

 

I was wondering how those footers would tie in. Now I see the big picture. Looking sharp (per usual).

 

The pleasant surprise was my home owner cut me a check for the concrete saw. 1100 bucks. He's been very generous.

We installed 1x on both sides of the column drops so the stucco guys could have a place to bump their Milcor to. We screw it out far enough to remove easily and push our ceiling into the open space.

The show must go on! We can even get the painters in before the ceiling as well without worry of any over spray.

That's more than enough fun for one day.

Had maybe 6" to start with and the walls there were super drafty. I could feel the cold coming off of them

That's a lot of cotton candy...

 

Started this one today.

It’ll be a 30x50 metal building.

 

I was installing batts in attics in the 70s. Coveralls, gloves, goggles, something covering my head(don't remember what), mask, boots.

It almost worked......

 

Most expensive subfloor I've ever had installed, 1-1/8' Advantech. Hard to make $ on spec houses with lumber prices this high. We'll see....

 

Atleast the dollar amount your selling at its a hell of a lot easier to cover material overages. Atleast it's not a 1600 sq ft rancher, those specs are probably praying to break even lol

 

Stupid City of Houston stormwater detention rules, having to spend $35,000 to install HDPE pipe under a driveway to store rain water.

You could drain a lake with that size pipe. Why so big? Length?

 

Scraped it for the driveway today. 120’ long.

Rock middle of next week. Have to go pour another job.

Im gonna end up bringing in about 140 yards of rock for this, and hauling out about the same in topsoil. 😳🙄

What attachment is that on the cat? Did you do the entire cut with that?

 

4 in 1

Yes I did

Its a little rough but I dug out some soft spots and didn’t worry about getting it bladed out perfect. I’ll do that with the rock. 👍

I thought it might be a 4-in-1 but I’ve never seen one on a small loader. Then I thought it was some specialized scraper.

The driveway looks good, put some rock on and I’d drive on it.

 

My excavator can install a gravel drive for what it costs me just to buy the gravel.

 

Kinda makes me wonder how much gravel your excavator is actually using. Lol. I watched a guy’s driveway/parking area get built for his apartment building. He told me a couple years later he’s got 18” of gravel under that bad mama jama.

No you don’t.

 

The sandstone house is on Lake Buchanan. Not my favorite design or prettiest house but it's going to be very nice for the price point. Masons are on outside and next week 3 coat 1 1/8 stucco with Sto product. Because of the climate we paint the stucco because of cracks. With the elastomeric paint and elastomeric Sto it's pretty legit 👌

The ass end of the Inks Lake custom is going to be lit when it's done, gets big limestone stairs. View from 3rd story is incredible, I'll snap a pic next time I'm there

 

Starting a smaller 3300 sq ft custom next week on a lot a stones throw from the other Lake Buchanan Custom Home. That house in the second pic is the other custom. Meeting with a lot directly next to this one next month to discuss building a custom there as well

 

Atleast tile is something we can confidently sub out still.

Lake Marble Falls Custom, carried same backsplash through kitchen, butlers pantry, utility and bar. Same floor through out house, including back porch all over ditra, including elevator floor. Front stoop is travertine. Same shower tile in all 5 showers

He takes pains to make sure to use Ditra Set etc... and has learned a lot about Schluter. Hes not quite at paul (austindb) level with Schluter but he's giving it a lot of effort. None of his other builders use it

 

Nice.

 

He's conscientious for sure
