Video. Mike reviews where the job is at and reflects on some of the details that the rest of us may miss.

The insulation is in, the cleanup begins. Video.

Mike shows us the insulation that is going in and more.

We’re just getting to the first exciting part of building a home. What was a hole in the ground now has our foundation walls, support beams, rough plumbing (if you want a bathroom in the basement), and drain tiles. The drain tiles seem to be a set of perforated plastic tubing set in gravel. If water gathers around the tubing, which is unlikely since it is built on mostly sand, the tubing will take the water to the sump pump. It is actually looking like a house at this point. Well, the bottom part at least.

Mike shows us insulation board and how it works. Windows too.
