I asked the PM about it and he said that it came today and they should start framing tomorrow. I wish he would have told us it was delayed... Do I have to call for an update every day? Some voluntary information would be nice, communication is the key!!! Anyway mini rant over ;)
Below are some pictures of the progress so far.
That happened to us, but trust me, once it starts to go up time will fly by and there will always be something new to see!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement! I am going to head down today hopefully there will be some hammers swinging.
DeleteYeah, that is frustrating. Excited for pictures!
ReplyDeleteRight, they are working on like four houses all at the same time I hope they don't mix things up. I love looking at the progress pictures hopefully I will get some good shots today.
DeleteYep, saw your wood stacked in nice piles on your front yard when I was checking out my lot last night :) Hopefully they'll have started framing you today.
ReplyDeleteFrom the pictures it looks like they did a nice job on your garage concrete.
I hear ya on the communication thing (having the same experience). Like you, I'm also concerned about the number of houses they are putting up right now. My hope is that things come in on time and are done right!
No luck the framers "didn't show up" Have you heard of such a thing.....
DeleteOuch! That's not cool - just not show up? PM did mention last week that there was a problem with framer availability but I thought that was because they were building too many houses at one time.
DeleteIf they started today you will be amazed when you get there tonight! Cant wait for pictures as you can see from all of us in the framing stage it goes so quick if you blink you have a house already!
ReplyDeleteYes they seem to move so fast... I hope we will get started and they keep going with no more delays....
DeleteDont be surprised if you dont get a blow by blow of every delay, its not going to happen....
ReplyDeleteFramers not showing up is very common, they get held up and there is no communicaton and they wont show up...very expected.
I also give myself a week cushion, even after being in the house delays are inevitable and no communication, our concrete driveway was to be installed this week, I knew that wouldnt happen maybe next week, sure enough its Thurs and no concrete...I've learn to adapt and know they are always behind, and its a bonus if its on time. Its a coping tool I guess :(
I always think that if someone is supposed to do a job and is getting paid for it they show up. I guess I am learning alot and will continue to learn through out this entire experence. I understand every industry has different standards and I guess it is the nature of the beast.
