Framing almost complete

Went to the block today to find the roof trusses almost complete! We have our building inspector going out Wednesday morning as mentioned to go over the framework to make sure it is all to code - hopefully he wont find anything too major.

Today I was a bit game and I ventured up the ladder and took a few photos of upstairs - it is going to be so great, the view from up there of the golf courses was just beautiful, I can't wait to sit on our terrace and enjoy the view :)

They had also removed a supporting beam from around our back window so I could take a snap of the view we will be getting once the window is placed in our dining area:


We also noticed that our front door frame and laundry door (we think) frame had been delivered. To us the front door frame looks shorter than what it should be - hopefully we are wrong but we will get it checked as we opted for a higher door - 2.34m as we had raised our ceiling heights downstairs and also raised the door heights to match.



Lastly here are a few more photos of our upstairs :) The next post will most likely be about what our building inspector finds - until then enjoy!

  1. Question: Is the LVL supporting the top of the window cut in 2 places (left & right)? If it is structural integrity might be compromised if it isn't joint together properly.

    1. I'm not too sure as to where you're referring to but there does not appear to be anything wrong with the framing around windows - had a building inspector out today and he didn't pick up anything wrong with any of the windows. :)
