Meeting with the Construction Supervisor

So today I had that meeting at 3PM. So how did it go? Well I'll tell you.
Tim (the Supervisor) is a nice, easy going, 50-something year old man. Very friendly and he knew the plan inside out.
I didn't learn a lot. Because we already went over the plans (that we secretly got from Courtney, the sales girl). The most important part was the building schedule. It goes a little something like this:
- The foundation stage: we already passed that. No need to explain any further.
- Framing stage. This is where we are now. Framing should be finished within the next 2 weeks. Weather permitting of course. Why do I say this? Well today it rained cats and dogs like they say here. It started this morning with a very heavy downpour. And it kept raining for the better part of the evening. So hopefully the rest of the week is kind of dry so framing can start. This will be exciting to see. When Tim went over the plans he said that our deck would not have stairs that lead into the yard. This issue was discussed before and Jayman promised us that there would be stairs on the deck. So I said that we NEED stairs! Otherwise there wouldn't be any logical entrance to our yard from the back side of the house. Imagine going through your garage, go round the house to enter your back yard. Euhm I don't think so! So Tim drew some steps on his plans with some exclamation marks next to it. So now we are sure, we are getting those steps. Of course I will remind them to build them when framing starts.
- Next fase will be the Rough-In stage. That means that all of the electrical, water and gas lines are installed. All of the outside finishing is on and the roof shingles are on. This is within 4 weeks after framing starts. When this is finished we have another meeting.
- After that there is the Insulation and Drywall fase. Pretty simple... Putting in Insulation and the inside walls.
- Then there is the Interior stage. This means that everything that needs to be in the house will be installed. Fridge, stove, furnace, etc.
- Next is the Construction Complete stage. This means that the house is basically finished. Then only thing that is done here are touch ups. Maybe there is some paint of the walls or a fridge with a scratch. Or maybe there were some parts that were on back order...
- After that its the Home Owner Orientation. They give us a walk through, through the house.
And then its Possession!!!!
Only bad news is. The house is on schedule to be finished on November 4th. *sigh*
