After allowing the basement floor to completely dry, or cure, the framers could come in and frame out the basement. But first, all of the lumber was delivered.
The next step was for Dan and a few of the kids to frame out the base of the fireplace.
Then the base of the fireplace was built, one cinder block at a time.
After a few days, the fireplace reached the first floor.
While the fireplace was being built, we back filled around the foundation.
While these jobs were being done, Maria got to clean out the shipping container.
We keep all of our tools in there and it gets messy and unorganized quickly.
At this point, the framers came in to frame out the different rooms in the basement.
And then one day, we had a floor to our house.
