It's been a couple of weeks since I've last updated the blog and lot's has happened. The siding is about 90% complete with the house and garage and will be completed by Monday. On the pictures you will see that it is board and batten style (hari-board with pro-trim battens) that will be painted a sage green color. The fascia material is all western red cedar that will be stained natural with UV protectent. The posts and beams (hem-fir) will also be natural as well as the fir sofits--stained to match the cedar. The decorative brackets are also western red cedar (4x4 material) and will be placed at the apex of and ends of each gable. The rest of the blue DuPont house wrap that is exposed will be covered with a 1 1/2 inch corrugated galvalume material--wainscoting on most of the house with accent walls (great room gable and all doors) completely covered with this material--giving it a mountain/ranch rustic look.
The interior is progressing nicely too as all of the rough ins (heating, cooling, plumbing, and electric) will be complete by Tuesday (June 1st) of next week. The garage slab is now poured as well and the shingles are on too--30 year driftwood colored dimensional composite shingle.
It's taken us about 2 and 1/2 months to this point and we estimate that we are about 70% complete with the construction of the house--not bad for a science teacher and school counselor as contractors! Enjoy the pics and we'll update it again soon.
