Main Windows Part 1

Replacing all of the large windows with larger double-pane windows. The involves sawing out the center support, and then adding additional framing at the bottom (as there is none currently) and building a frame. I'm doing them in sets of 3 or 4 so that they are manageable. Unfortunately the glass isn't cheap. Code requires tempered glass, and I'm looking at about $775 per window.

Start, demolition

The base only had the metal flashing wrapped over the foundation, so as a precaution I went ahead and sealed it with the same tar-based sealer I'm using on the base of the foundation

Now framing

And finally, once measurements are made, and glass ordered (2 week delivery) some temporary filler is put in place

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower. 1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan. Tested and approved by the inspector. Next is upper pan and then tile.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it. This will look good once the flooring is installed.
