Bathtub adventures.

So this video displays a very accurate representation of every day work at the Rohon house.
Listen Very carefully!



So as you noticed the tub was initial filled up in the bedroom before moving into the bathroom. Once the Tub made it in, it took quite some time to get it installed.
Also the electrical is all done.... except maybe that dimmer switch..... the ceiling is drywalled, and we have a new carpenter, who is actually are old carpenter, Tom ,,,, old Tom vs. young Tom who was are new carpenter but is now are old carpenter.

Rockwall almost done.

Well well well , it looks as though we are finally going to finish something. The rock wall is just about done. I got news today that they have also pored the front walkway; but of course, with a few complications. I sounds as though it took 3 cement trucks to get the job done since the first one didn't have enough, and the second one, they messed up the mix.


We will finally be able to use that hot tub.

Epic week off.

It was indeed an epic week. I was able to get a lot done .... although we never finished all the bathroom related wiring, i did basically redo a lot of it and finished all the plugs and switches. And passed the rough-in electrical inspection.
The picture below of is of me in the crawl space trying to feed the fishing tape into the ceiling of the upstairs foyer: we had to feed wires for the smoke alarm, and two lights.
It was very hot and humid in the crawl space.... and dark ...... but there's some interesting stuff in there.


Downstairs bedroom, and all the upstairs bedrooms I worked on this weekend. Redid all the switches and lights( had to put new retrofit boxes in for the most part) I left the house with no power in the upstairs..... except the bathroom. I don't know if that is still the case.A list of all the electrical that still needs to be redone:
-Dining room lights
-Kitchen lights
-Ceiling fan
-Galen/Juan-Luke bedroom light ( that one is going to suck)
-Stove and dishwasher
-Hotwater heater and Furnace
-A couple plugs upstairs and a couple connections for outside lights ( more crawl space!!!!)

Then I can start on the basement.

May 20 video

This is an update of what the house looks like.
May 20th. After a few more days of destruction.

May 13+14

Progress continues on the rockwall! Slowly though, but it's going to look real good. Inside, on the other hand, is continuing to deconstruct itself. I'v had to redo the " Control panel" in the bathroom due to the wall moving out an inch to properly fit the bath. The bathroom circuits are also now wired to the main breaker and I'v wired the bathroom fan.!! woot ...fans!!!

In the hall way, we are installing the smoke detectors and the lights. The lights are going to be two sets of track lights conected with an "L" conector..... which .... doesn't exist in grey..... the same colour of our tracks. We also will need to cut them for them to fit.

Luke says:

This is stupid. I havent had a light in my room for about.. 5 months. I hope we can finish the electrical soon, but this shouldnt get in the way of the bathroom, the rockwall, the yard........


WHEN WILL IT END?!!

I will upload pictures soon.

Rockwall started

Finally after 1 year of planning, the rockwall is finally getting built. The rock wallers arrived some time last week to drop off all the rocks, concrete, and sand. Today they started the front. The wall is made of a mix of rocks, but I think it's mostly granite.
