NOTES, Extras, Friday Topics - 10/3/12

Today:

• We found the water line from the main house to the Guest house.  An east fix.
• We trenched from the street to the house for new electric service.  It will be inspected and backfilled tomorrow.
• We continued on with saw cutting.
• Spoke with Barry about gas service and worst case scenarios.  Will update on Friday.
• Removed all existing gutters and downspouts so that the painters can get in and paint the eaves before installing new gutters.
• Confirmed copper start date of 10/10/12.

Masonry Extras - There is some masonry that needs to be dealt with that we are doing on a T&M basis.

1. The parapet wall on the breakfast nook needed to be partially rebuilt.  It was structurally undermined when we uncovered it. The chimney wall in the master bedroom will be parged to repair the failing mortar joints.  Fully parging the section instead of treating each mortar joint will be significantly less expensive while granting a layer of moisture barrier. Estimate: $2,880.00
   
2. We would like to discuss the raising of the height of the parapet wall to equal the code height for a railing.  This height would be 36" off of the deck.  The mason could raise the brickwork to the required height which would be approximately at the height of the window sill adjacent. Estimate: $6,000.00
   
3. Repair of brick walls after sawcutting and beam installation. Estimate: T&M

Carpentry Extras:

1. New structural beam at entry to master bedroom.  Estimate: T&M
2. New structural beam at dining room wall. Estimate: T&M
3. Head off floor framing for range hood hole.  Estimate: T&M
4. Reframe sections due to new framing plan.  Estimate: T&M

Cabinetry Extras:

1. Wainscot.  Estimate: Coming soon
2. Extra cabinetry for pantry and TV Room.  Estimate: Coming soon
3. Extra Faux beams in TV Room.  Estimate: Coming soon
4. Pantry cabinets.  Estimate: Coming soon

Other Extras:

1. Extra insulation as required by the building department after walkthrough of both Guest House and Main House.  Estimate: Coming soon
2. Concrete coring.  For electrical and venting.  Core for squash court dehumidification. Shoring and concrete repairs due to sawcutting.  Estimate: Coming soon
3. Excavate to locate water pipe at right side of house.  Estimate: Coming soon
4. Extra beams as per engineer.
5. Debris removal in breakfast nook.  Old organic debris left from past builders to be removed as per request by building department.
6. Locate water line - excavate to unbcover.

Topics for Friday meeting:

3. Pool numbers.

5. Appliance decisions.  There are rebates to be had if ordering before November and prices go up after November 1st.

Meeting Notes - 9/27/12

Peter Stames, JB Clancy

Email from JB 9/27/12;

"Hi Pete and Anne:

Peter Stames and I met at the site this morning to review progress.  They are moving quickly and it is exciting to see the spaces begin to take shape. 

Peter and I spent a long time up in the Master Bathroom tuning the dimensions.  We arrived at a plan that I really like.  See attached. 

What we were struggling with at first was the space between the tub and the vanities.  I know we have spoken about this before and looking at in the space it felt tight.  So our solution was to recess the wall where the vanity is and match the walls  of hall and the toilet closet projection.  This gave us a nice recess in the wall to tuck the vanity into.  It also left enough room in front of the toilet so it would not feel too tight.  We held the shower width at 50” which will give you a clear dimension inside after the tile is on of 48”.  We also narrowed up the width of the toilet room to 42” and were then able to center a 6’ vanity on the window behind the tub. Peter is also holding the wall height down to allow for transom windows above the sink mirrors.  We will be able to review all of this tomorrow on site.  I will plan on being at that meeting. 

I think the room feels much more balanced now. 

Everything else looks good – the opening between the kitchen and TV room is spectacular."
