Inspection on Monday

Friday, "Jackhammer" John finished for the week and left a note that said the City inspector would be out Monday afternoon. He has routed all the new drain lines, but not the new vent line from the bathroom. Once the inspection is complete, he will start back filling and repair the cement floor. We had him put a new drain in the floor of the bath to accommodate a future shower. He also reconnected the washer and dryer for us to use over the weekend.



For some reason, the floor in the bathroom area never got a second layer of cement as did the rest of the laundry area. When he repairs the cement floor, I have asked John to bring the new bathroom floor up to the same level as the rest of the laundry area. To facilitate this, Saturday morning, I removed the walls of the bathroom. I recovered as much of the ribbed wall paneling as possible for T to use at her country estate.

I also broke up more of "the bulge" in the cement floor under the conservatory. It appears there is sound earth below it. No cavern was found and, it appears, we'll just pour a new cement floor. That is a relief.
