Foundation forms were removed last week - we are close to having a full foundation and starting the framing!

They covered the top of the foundation for a bit of insulation while the concrete set.  They left the forms up for about 5 days due to the cold weather.


They took the forms off and let the concrete set up for another few days before any of the slab preparation was done. 


The foundation and footing exterior was waterproofed on the 26th. 



The first step in subslab preparation consists of getting all of the plumbing pipes laid out and properly buried.  As soon as we get 3 days of good weather in the forecast (snowing again today) they'll put down the blue board closed cell insulation, tape it to create a vapor barrier and impermeable layer to work with the radon fan, and then pour the slab over that insulation.
