It sure looks like a construction site now. The wonderful orange security fencing has been installed.
All the cedar siding has now been removed as well.
Lastly, here’s a shot of the basement entrance roof being unattached.
It’s been encouraging to have an active construction site. The excavation will begin shortly.
Today at the church there were some trees removed, and the shed was relocated. This was done to prepare the site for the upcoming excavation. The last of the lumber was also delivered today.
Next up for the site will be setting up the security fencing. Once that nice orange fence is up the real work will begin.
We had equipment working at the expansion site today. Two test holes were dug so that engineers can confirm the ability of the soil to support the new structure. We’ve been told to expect the results of the test by the end of next week.
While we wait we are in the process of having the gas meter moved, moving the storage shed, and hopefully some excavation. Once the test results are back the forms for the footings can be built.
Today the first, albeit small, step took place on the construction site. There were 3 lifts of lumber dropped off that will be used to construct the forms for the foundation. As of today we are expecting the excavation to begin in one week!
