We first had the idea to get started on building a shop in spring of 2018.\u00a0 But it’s amazingly difficult to figure out the steps to begin.\u00a0 After many months and false starts we are pleased to work with Finish Line Concrete (pole building and concrete,) Mid-Valley Gravel (entrance culvert, leveling, trenching, gravel delivery and compacting,) Alpha Associates (electrical,) D. Hart Plumbing and Gecko Construction (interior framing.)<\/p>\n

Bids came in around Christmas and HELOC was in hand by February.\u00a0 It is now April, and it has already changed the property drastically.<\/p>\n

Check out blackberry removal to see how far this corner has come.\u00a0 This is many inches of gravel in action.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This was a challenging phase.\u00a0 Water and sewer line are in (after a frantic search for a plumber who could drop in the water line to complete the inspection, and Mid-Valley coming out again to hand dig it to the necessary code…)\u00a0 But then, as they started digging the holes for the poles, the drain field was discovered.\u00a0 What that means is that there was a layer of river rock that had to be vacuumed to a manageable stability.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>After several extra steps, the poles were set and progress quickly appeared.<\/p>\n
