Blog update... sorry it's been a while, we've been busy :-)


Pouring a shower pan - sloping the grout toward the drain.



Pausing for a moment of reflection. Why did I get the fast-setting mortar again?
This was supposed to be a river-rock shower floor. Didn't really work out well, stay tuned for the ensuing modifications.

We decided to paint the ceiling in the living room and kitchen to tie everything in. Action poses of Tasha the incredible painting machine.





First test panel of expanding foam insulation. This is going to be messy, but effective.

Radiant tubing going in.





Radiant manifold shown in place in the office closet.




Thanks to our good friends at Central Concrete and Rock'N Ready pumping for their help. Central concrete gave us a great price on some self-leveling 8-sack concrete with 25% fly ash. A special blend just for our floor.




Action pose. Bleeding and priming the radiant manifold and tubing.


And the floor goes in....
