Not a lot happened this week. We had to wait for the bank to inspect the basement walls before anything else could happen.
Yesterday most of the dirt was back filled. Our contractor was worried that our garage needed some extra support so we had gravel filled in. It actually is starting to look more like a basement and garage now!
In the background you can see they delivered some lumber. More is supposed to be delivered Monday and the framing will begin!
These supports are all around the basement to keep the weight of the dirt from collapsing the wall. It was like 8 feet of dirt that was filled in!
The black circle is the sump pump. We haven't had to use it yet! The little white pipe in the wall is where our well comes in the house.
That is the front porch. You can kind of see the slope there...
It was hard to get a good picture of the hill in the front yard. I think we might try to flatten it out a little bit. Eventually.
Stay tuned for the exciting week next week!!
