Plumbing and Electrical Rough In Started...

I was pleasantly surprised today to get a phone call from my plumber, and he told me they had a change in their schedule which meant they will be roughing in the under-slab plumbing this week -- probably finishing early next week.

And, my electrician also was out there today, putting in the conduit for the two main incoming supply wires.  They are now waiting on the plumbing to get done in one area so they can complete the conduit work...

I was also in contact with my HVAC guy to get the stove venting to put under the slab (since we're using a downdraft vent for the stove on the island).  So, I'll go pick up that venting tomorrow morning, and I'll have the plumber dig out where it will go for me. Also, he told me that he will be pulling one of his crews off a job they are working on, and having them put in my radiant heat (insulation and tubing) as soon as all the other under slab work is done.  So, it looks like we will have very little, if any, delays between each of these tasks between now and when the framing starts...

In addition, I went to see my Amish framer/builder to give him an update on the status (since he doesn't have a phone).  Looks like they will be ready to start framing the first of October, which will be great -- if we can be ready by then!

So, here are some pictures of the work today...  I expected the work to be idle for a few days this week, but I was wrong!
