New construction (my house)

thought I'd post some pics along the way showing our new home construction.

We bought the lot a bit over a year ago. Had the plans made from an example we found on the internet. Great experience working on drawings instead of buying already made or a cookie cutter home.

 Fire them.  Now!

 Just came back to this thread. Lol J Scott. We almost fired them several times and even had a meeting with the bank about it. Decided it would take too long to find contractors to finish the job but let me say my wife made them regret having taken her on lol. They made very little money on this house. She made them redo a ton of items including the shower tile twice. Replace hardwood with marble and lots of other stuff.

Here's a pic of final product
