Wire and Pipe

June 16, 2006
A quiet start to the week lead to a busy finish with the majority of the plumbing and electrical work complete. Except for the basement, the knob and tube re-wiring is done. David will return on Monday afternoon to finish up the wiring and install the bathroom fans.

James has roughed in all the drains and water pipes and installed the bathtub set in cement. We realize our water pressure is pathetic despite a 3/4 inch feed pipe. We will address this issue with the city (as it seems to be a problem on their end) once the majority of the renos are complete.

James will return to finish the water pipes for the kitchen sink and dishwasher when the cabinets are installed, as he will drill in from under the kitchen floor to ensure no water pipes are set on exterior walls. He will also move the basement laundry, and install an outside faucet for watering the garden.

Fred swings by and assembles the lawn mower. He cuts the (long overdue) backyard lawn and brainstorms with Andrew to figure out some issue re: re-routing of the ducts.
