About A House - Foundation Phase

It's not a very exciting time of the project at the moment & January is probably the worst month to lay a foundation.

It's Jan 31, 2012. Another non-stop rainy and soggy day in Vancouver. Foundation work started on January 9th and should take about 3 weeks if the weather cooperates. Unfortunately, sub-zero temperature snowy condition arrived mid January followed by a week of rain.

Progress as of Jan 30...

View from front of house... lots of material waiting to participate in the fun!

Arthur the builder, figures we need 3 dry days to finish constructing the frame of the foundation and 3 warm and dry days to pour the concrete. Warm means above +5 for at least 6 hours.

So here's to praying to the weather God to hold on that 14 days forecast! (Courtesy of The Weather Network)
