Plumbing

I didn't plan on doing the plumbing untill the plumbers wanted $7500 and 4 weeks to do it. Like so many other things it was quicker to do it myself and save a bundle.


Kitchen needed the rusting 1 1/2" line replaced to the sewer...a little digging required.

Failed my first inspection because I had the vent Y the wrong way...darn inspectors.

Insulation & Ply

We used cotton insulation and styrofoam insulation where there was no sheathing.



Because there was no sheathing on the outside of the studs under the siding, I put ply sheathing on the inside to keep the house standing up in an earthquake. It is a little bit inside-out, but makes hanging pictures much easier.
