Railing Installation

The majority of the metal railings for the front of the house have been fabricated and installed. They are very clean and complement the house well. Also, the light fixtures on the outside have been installed.

The blue tape covers the area Ben welded joints together. The bare metal needs to be covered until coated.

Lights and speakers built into the ceiling are being installed. There is not much left of these to install.

Bathrrom mirrors, plumbing, sinks, glass, etc...

My dad and I loaded up the pickup with a few of the bigger pieces of equipment during the holiday break.


The driveway seemed to survive the freeze and snow. We packed up the hay in the blue tarp.



Inside the house lighting is being installed. Below is an example of two can lights that are directed toward the wall. I think my Dad envisions art of some other object to display on the wall.



Same goes for the living room over the fireplace.



The shower glass was installed. Below is a picture with ambient light (it looks like this with many of the lights on (sans the light inside the shower, which is not installed yet).



This is what it looks like more clearly with some light. Two of the three showerheads are installed. I like the square top hanging tile showerhead.



Most of the appliances were delivered, and some installed. Here is the main refrigerator without the stainless steel front kit (to be install later). It is a Subzero, with inset hinges, so it will line up flush with the european style cabinets.



A winder shot of the kitchen.



The Meile dishwasher, oven and convention oven were installed.



In order to hook up the dishwasher (we needed on extra connection because the ovens required two), a wire hookup had to be routed from an extra in the basement to the upstairs kitchen. A small cutout was made by my dad and routed by Jason.



This is the downstairs basement, without the front kits yet.



The downstairs washer and dryer are stackable front loaders by Bosch (very small).



This is the upstairs shower/bath glass installed.



The powder room sink is installed, along with the mirror. A tile short wall was also installed.



This is the dual flush Kohler Saile toilet.



The basement bathroom, with mirror installed (glued to the wall on brackets or some frame, I believe). Notice the two long pieces of wood holding the mirror against the wall.



Basement shower glass doors installed, just like the upstairs bathroom. The plumber installed the fixtures down here as well



This is the master bathroom with most of the lights on. The mirror is nice and big. The two sinks are 19 inches, pretty modern looking. The round minimalist faucets are pretty cool as well.



LED rope lights were installed behind the mirror along the wood backing.




This was the wood backing installed, along with the electrical hookup.



Here is the upstairs sink and faucet



Posted are the omitted pictures of the master closet package installed.



Pretty simple and utilitarian.



A slide out for ties (or belts, I forget) on the right, and a slide out to hang "stuff."




This is what the directional can light looks like close up.




Below are the delivered lights in boxes on the main floor.




These small opal mushroom lights are installed in the closets. The downstairs one will be triggered by a motion sensor.



The cabinets had to be slightly disassembled to allow for room to install these lights.
