The foundation was completed over the past week. The walls were dampproofed and a french drain installed on the north side to relieve hydraulic pressure against the foundation walls. Now that the foundation is backfilled, it gives us a feel for the position of the home on the lot. Sleeves for the gas and electric service were also installed, along with the water line. Framing and ground iron (plumbing under the slab) commences this week.
