While we were in town, Jim stopped at the plumbing supply store for a quote on the footer drains. This was a place he had set up an account with over the winter, so it paid off. They gave him a quote and said they would get it ready and we could pick it up this afternoon.
Then it was off to the Building Department; thankfully, the guy was there and Jim was able to talk to him. He said he would hopefully have our permit within a day or two! We were SO excited - it's been a long wait but it's almost official!
After that, it was back to the steel yard for our last load of rebar. Jim has to haul each piece from the forklift and get them settled into the cradle in the truck - tough work. This time, I counted them as he was loading - it looks like we are 2 short on this load too.
All fastened down and ready to roll!
We went back to the plumbing supply store and picked up our footer drains. There were a few things that were on backorder but all the drain pipe was there.
Then it was unloading time. First the rebar - it's nice to have it all on the property! There is 500 pounds of rebar - 6500 feet! Whew!
The drain pipe was so much easier to unload after doing all that rebar! There are 40 pieces in total.
So quite the day - we are so excited about the plans and can't wait to get the permit!
