Days 37 and 38 seems to have been insulation and other touches to the
house. I believe these touches were more electric, plumbing, etc.
Here's the county's website results and I'm not sure what it exactly
means.
Personally,
I do not think that the insulation included is sufficient. I don't
like that there is no option to add additional at an additional cost on
our massive option lists. I have a duplex now and I can hear every
single peep from one room to the next, even when the doors are closed.
Considering my kids are on summer vacation right now and I still have to
go to bed early for work - it's been horrible. I'd prefer to have some
kind of sound barrier insulation between every wall. I understand that
this will have no effect on the energy or temperature efficiency but I
can't help but think it would help with sound. In the non-insulated
walls all you have are 2 thin layers of drywall separating one room from
the next. If I have an opportunity to make suggestions to Ryan Homes it
will be at the top of the list.
Our brick (Boral Brick - Sugar Creek) was delivered. I'm not sure I like it! Ug. I hope it looks different on the house.
We've also scheduled our pre-drywall meeting for Wednesday! It's getting closer now!
The
outside of the house hasn't changed much so I haven't taken any more
photos. I don't go in the house while people are working, so no more
photos of the inside yet! I don't want to be in the way and I certainly
don't want to slow down any progress! Maybe I can snap some more
after/during the pre-drywall meeting.
This blog is all about building a home with Ryan Homes and NVR. The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth about the amazing journey of building our first home. This is hoped to be a honest collection of the process, pictures, questions, problems, and solutions throughout the entire process of building our very first home and the bliss of the after. And here we go! We're so very excited!! Please bear with me as I make continual improvements to this blog. :)
