Rough Plumbing and Prepping the Slab Pour

So as you've probably figured out by now, our house is gonna be a little different than most.  With Superior Walls foundation and slab-on-grade construction, we had to run most of our plumbing beneath the slab.  Once the slab is poured, there's no changing things, so it has to be perfect.

Our concrete guy Joe meets the team on-site


The first step was to lay in the pea stone nice and flat and get the walls staked out

Zachary inspects the pea stone.  Our sub-slab insulation has arrived!

Abby and Katy checked it out

Our rough plumbing is in and inspection approved

What's that white stuff?  Snow in mid November.... ugh

Starting to get the insulation laid out.  4" of termite-proof expanded-polystyrene (EPS).

Insulation completed... more snow

At this point we are a very long way from having a roof on.  And winter is coming fast (or already here, really).  Blarg!  But we're making some progress.  No choice but to press on!
