Sheet Rock…Day 17

The Big Sky Construction guys continue taping and mudding the first floor ceilings and walls. They add layers of mud between the sheet rock as move toward their goal of 16” (wide) joints. The first photo shows a close-up stairs to the second floor. The “look and feel” of this element of the “L” Shaped House has been the subject of many discussions between Mike Kloti, us (Jim & Deb), JLM (Paul & John), and the folks at Solid (the finish carpenters). It is going to be fun to watch as the stairs take shape!

The next photo shows the sheet rocking details around the fireplace in the first floor living room. The framing surrounding the fireplace will be covered with Durock and eventually cultured stone. A wood mantle and rock hearth (Limestone) will be installed at the top and bottom of this opening.

 

The last photo shows what I think is a really good example of the very nice work the Big Sky Construction guys are doing as they install sheet rock throughout the “L” Shaped House. It’s just too bad that this cool intersection of walls, ceilings, and roof lines takes place in Deb’s walk-in closet off the master bedroom.
