Next Up:


Nordic Insulation sprayed foam insulation in the ceiling today and prepped the house for spraying the walls tomorrow. All the exterior stud faces are taped off with red tape.
If everything passes inspection on Friday, Aaron said the house will be sheetrocked on Saturday. Jason and I are going to have to sneak in on Friday night to insulate both bathrooms for sound. This will be our first hands on project with the house!
This weekend we also need to finalize tile for both baths, purchase interior light fixtures and bath cabinet from Ikea. Oh, and pick up the door hardware from Menards and a mailbox from Lowe's. We should save a nice chunk on going with a commercial style lockset/deadbolt for both exterior doors.

Hi! I have been "stalking" your blog for some time and instead of bombarding you with the 8 billion questions I have, I'm going to start with the first one. It sounds like you're working with Hive Modular for your home, but are not doing the prefab house. Is that correct? It looks like they're building it onsite. Did you go with one of their ready made plans and then tweak it, or did you have them design one for you? (Okay, it's more than one question :) If how did you make that decision. We are so up in the air as to what to do. If our dream home would just come on the market we'd be set! We're vacillating so much between custom build or pre fab, but are not sure if we can even afford the custom. Any thoughts or ideas you might have to help us would be great! Thank-you!!
