Day 522 - Penultimate inspection

Blogger is not letting me upload pictures, so I will have to add the picture later.

We had our final inspection on Monday, Day 522. At least, it should have been the final inspection, but since it did not pass, it was our penultimate (second from last) inspection instead.

The inspector had three complaints:

(1) No cold air return in basement.
Since Charles started cutting out the hole for the cold air return in his presence, the inspector agreed not to mark that as an outstanding item. Charles is going to return on Wednesday evening to complete the cut-out and install a grill.

(2) No completion certificate of the septic system.
Charles is going to get that and fax it to the inspector.

(3) Exterior grading not sloping away from house everywhere.
The inspector had three areas that he had issues with: (a) an area by the back of the garage that wasn't filled in, (b) the window wells which were not completed, and (c) the north side of the house.

I have photos of some of these things, and will update this blog entry when I can upload photos once again.
