Phase Three: Scraping, Water, and Marking

With all the demolition and land clearing completed, it was time to turn things over to the construction contractor to start the house. Surveys were conducted and the new house was officially plotted on the property. The contractor then sent in a tractor crew to scrape the lot to clearly identify where the work would occur and to prepare the site for footers.

In this series of shots you'll also see the existing house so that you get some perspective on where all of this work is occurring. You'll also note that we have recently repainted the house white with black trim to match the house that is being built. Also in this series is a shot of the water pipe that I had run to connect the new house to our existing well on the extreme east side of our property.
