The sheetrock crew wrapped up their work (wall texture and final sanding) over the weekend, and were cleaned and ready for the painters. Next time they return they will be working on finishing the exterior porch soffit that is sheetrock. The painting crew has started masking off windows, door jambs, and the floor in preparation […]

John & Marlene – The railings are painted, and will be installed next week. The painter is finishing up the garage, and some touch-up and drywall patches here and there. The weather has been cold with a few showers this week, although it is supposed to clear out tomorrow. The painters are planning on working […]

The excavators have been on site this week doing the final grading around the house. They also re-shaped the berm with all the remaining material on site. We are now ready for the landscapers to begin some preliminary work – installing irrigation, drain rock, metal edging – and Steve O’Brien should mobilize tomorrow. The carpenters […]

This week was nice weather, but included a couple mornings of fresh snow! Not unheard of in May, but we’re ready for some real spring. The drywall crew is making progress on the taping and mudding. This process is quite detailed, as they have to mask off all the baseboard, jambs, and shadowline to make […]

John & Marlene – Neal finished up the countertops this week, and the plumbers will start their trim-out next week. Unfortunately, our plumber is on vacation this week, so couldn’t get started when Neal finished. The electricians were onsite all week, trimming out fans, ext. sconces, outlets, switches, under cabinet lighting, and wiring mechanical equipment […]

John & Marlene – The painters have painted the registers, and were installing them today. They are also working on the steel railings. Neal showed up today and worked on setting tops, installing backsplashes, and drilling holes for the faucets. The plumbers can now start next week on their trim-out. The electricians will be onsite […]

Nice sunny weather this week, punctuated by a hail and thunder storm yesterday afternoon. Almost all the snow is gone from around Moulton Loop, and the site can hopefully now dry out. The excavators were on site Tuesday and Wednesday to prep the garage apron, mechanical screen pad, and porch step pad. The concrete was […]

They are also continuing with leveling the floor, and filling in the areas that were dropped for the previous floor finishes. They have started removing the steel/wood beam above the pool table […]

John & Marlene – Sorry that I can’t seem to download photos this morning! Just went by the house and took my weekly update photos, but I can’t transfer them to the computer. Very frustrating. Everything from fonts to background colors changed on my computer this week. Hopefully on Monday, with Lindsey’s help, I can […]

This week started off with 5″+ of snowfall on Monday and Tuesday, but we’ve recovered nicely. The sun is shining and melting more and more snow on the site. The siding guys completed the garage door siding, and are working on the fasteners, and the remaining pieces of siding on the north west side of […]

Two snow storms this week left a couple inches here and there, but the snow isn’t sticking. The site is getting muddier as snow melts in the fields around and the ground is thawing. Hopefully we get some warmer sunnier days soon to start drying things out again. The sheetrock crew has been hard at […]

John & Marlene – The electricians started trim-out today, and are moving through the upstairs. The painters are moving into the garage, so I’ve been doing a bit of cleaning and moving the last few days. The HVAC crew were here yesterday, and installed the range hood. The cabinet installers were onsite earlier in the […]
Marozzi-4-4-19
John & Marlene – The painters are finishing up the main living area on the 1st floor, and will be moving into the garage next week to finish up that area. The electricians will be onsite next week to do trim-out, and plan on putting 4-5 electricians in the house to do what is available, […]

The weather has been alternated between sunny, cold, cloudy and mild, which means spring is hopefully almost here! The siding crew has enjoyed the longer days and have completed the south and master wings, as well as the front entry. They have another week to go and then should start in on the decking. The […]

The carpenters wrapped up installing the last of the doors this week. The pivot doors in the mudroom and the garage entry door were the last ones to go in. Now they have moved outside and are working on siding. Hopefully the nice weather continues for them. There is still a lot of snow on […]
Marozzi-3-21-19
John & Marlene – The interior doors have been re-installed after finishing, and the hardware and door stops installed. I ordered baseboard door stops from Carol at RMH today (the inexpensive Deltana brand, not the $60/ea. RMH ones!). Also met with John Bero from Shutters & Shades II today, and he measured for the motorized […]

This week was mostly sunny and cold, with only one quick storm on Tuesday. The trim carpenters finished the pocket doors, and have moved on to the pivot doors. Because there is no trim on the doors or base, they have been making a lot of small adjustments and tiny fixes to the framing as […]

Another foot of snow came down at the site early this week, but not before we had the loader out there for half the day on Monday. The driver and I worked hard for several hours pushing snow back from the house and decks in preparation for siding in the coming weeks. Some of the […]
Marozzi-3-7-19
John & Marlene – Another snowy week, but nothing like last week! The baseboard is done except in the garage, and that should be finished by the end of tomorrow. The painters are working in the Master Suite, and finishing up lacquering the trim and doors. The cabinet installers are done except for the added […]

This was another extremely short week. Teton Pass was closed Monday and Tuesday, so no one was on site except me. I spent 2 hours shoveling snow away from the windows on the north deck. Wednesday and Thursday the carpenters were able to finish up the base in the bedrooms, and start hanging a couple […]
Marozzi-2-28-19
John & Marlene – Wow, did we have some winter this week. The Pass was closed Mon. and Tues., so we only had one painter show up those days. Yesterday and today we were back at full strength. The painters will have all of the doors finished by tomorrow, and ready to be re-installed. The […]

Another short week with President’s Day on Monday, but we still managed to get a little bit of everything weather-wise – sub-zero cold, snow, wind, sun. The trim carpenters made good headway and mostly wrapped up the baseboard. They finished hanging all the swinging doors, and we took delivery of the remaining pivot and pocket […]
Marozzi-2-21-19
John & Marlene – A little reprieve from the snow this week. The cabinet installers will finish up tomorrow, and will just have the added shelves in Closet 219 to do once that unit is built. The painters will be spraying the final coats of lacquer this weekend on the woodwork, and then it will […]
Marino Farrell 2/15/19
This was another week of crazy snowy weather. We had blizzard-like conditions again for most of the week, with the pass closing a couple times, and for the entire day today (Friday). We also had 40° temperatures and intermittent rain. Despite the bad road conditions all over the valley, the trim crew was able make […]
Marozzi-2-15-19
John & Marlene – The heavy snow this week didn’t do us any favors. Kevin finished the floors over the weekend, and we got the protection down so that people could work. The cabinet installers got a few days in, and were planning to be done by now, but they’ve been unable to make it […]

Last week was a fairly quiet one on the site. The HVAC guys finally wrapped up their work in the crawlspace, and will return when the appliances are installed to tie in dryer and stovetop venting. The tile crew finished up the bathrooms, and will return later to seal all the tile. This week has […]
Marozzi-1-31-19
John & Marlene – The cabinet installers were all over the house this week – installing cabinets in the Master Closet, Master Bath, Jr. Master Closet, bedroom closets, Pantry, Ski/Mud Room, and Garage. We will even see the Pantry cabinets back tomorrow, after they took them back to the shop to cut them down in […]
Marino Farrell 1/25/19
Another week with more snow! It’s hard to stay on top of the plowing and shoveling with all the wind out at the site, but we’re keeping at it. The trim carpenters made several trips out this week to start prepping for base, sills, doors, and the wood paneling. We had a few of the […]
Marozzi-1-25-19
John & Marlene – Winter got serious this week, with lots of snow and wind. The tile sub. sealed the Master Bath Floor, and is done except for sealing a few areas that the painters have masked off. The painters are finishing the last coat of lacquer upstairs, and are putting the final coat on […]
Marino Farrell 1/19/19
We had quite a bit of snow this week fall in the valley. Valley Hardwoods has finished with the flooring install. They also completed the install of the wooden floor vents, so everything is ready when they return for sanding and finishing. We then spent half a day covering the flooring with protective ramboard. The […]

Happy New Year! The flooring crew is making great progress this week. They’ve finished the master, closet, powder and most of the great room. The flooring looks great – just the right amount of “character” and long length boards. They should wrap up by the end of next week with the install. The tile crew […]
Marozzi-1-4-19
John & Marlene – The painters are working to finish the upstairs, and will be spraying another coat of lacquer on the trim upstairs this weekend. The custom cabinets by Josh Weltman were installed yesterday. The Laundry Room cabinets will be installed by next Wed., and then Neal will template for the granite countertops. The […]

The site was pretty quiet at the beginning of this week, except for some snow falling. The tile guys were able to get some more tile laid, and they grouted several rooms as well. The flooring guys mobilized on Thursday and have done their layout. They should get started laying flooring today and we’ll see […]
Marozzi-12-20-18
John & Marlene – Always amused that today is the first day of winter, and we’ve been dealing with it for months! While we got off to a good start with the snow in November, it has dropped off a bit this month. The cabinet installation is in full swing, with the Kitchen installation finishing […]
Marino Farrell – 12/20/18
The flooring has arrived! The delivery truck showed up yesterday and Kevin and three helpers (including me) unloaded the entire truck by hand! The flooring looks beautiful and Kevin seems very happy with the delivery. It will spend a week acclimating, and they should start the install after Christmas. Kathy and I had a quick […]

The sheetrock crew wrapped up their install this week of the ceiling and most of the upper walls. They will return to hang the lower walls once the flooring, doors, baseboard, and sills are installed. The electrician returned and put down the floor heat wire in the master bath, and the tile guys finished laying […]
Marozzi-12-13-18
John & Marlene – The wood flooring is done on the main level, and the installer is starting on the balcony. The trim on the doors and windows is done, along with the baseboard upstairs. The baseboard in the wood flooring area will follow, after the floor is sanded and finished. The barn wood has […]
Marino Farrell 12/7/18
Very cold this week with temperatures below zero, but we’re working inside! The drywall crew made good progress on hanging the ceilings and some of the walls. They will continue through next week. When they’re wrapped up, we should start to see some of the tile and flooring go in. The HVAC crew is still […]
Marozzi-12-6-18
John & Marlene – Clear and cold this week, which is OK as we are working inside! Paul is done with the interior casing and some of the baseboard. He is working on the barn wood paneling in the Jr. Master at the moment. The painters are working on stain and lacquer on the window […]
