Exterior Walkway TilingThis shows rebar strips being pressed into the newly poured exterior concrete surface to make a faux tile finish. The rebar strips are used after the concrete has had time to 'set up' so that the impression can be made by pressing the rebar frame into the concrete.dozerSep 27, 2011

Terracotta Tiles Being LaidTerracotta takes more care to lay than regular tiles. Due to the way the tiles are produced, they are not all the same size, much like grade C tiles -- therefore, extra care must be taken to make sure they come out looking straight in the given pattern. The tiles are pre dipped in a liquid silicone derivative so they can't degenerate with moisture. dozerSep 27, 2011

Grouting the Glass BlocksThe glass blocks are grouted using a colored premium grout (bacteria resistant) applied using a plastic bag as a application tube.dozerSep 27, 2011

Duct Work for Exhaust VentingThere are two exhaust vents one from the kitchen and one from the bathroom. This shows the ductwork used. The vent facing fits in the soffit framework.dozerSep 27, 2011

Unfinished Kitchen CounterThe counter showing the red bricks that will form the support structure and the wood framework which is temporarily used to support the counter pour. dozerSep 27, 2011

Archway SupportThe start of the archway support structure. There will be concrete poured in forms above the archway which is supported by a rebar framework welded to the roofing metal.dozerSep 27, 2011

Applying the Render Coat to the CounterThe render coat is applied to the counter, with exact sizes being maintained for the cabinet door openings. Great care is applied to make sure the corners are properly squared (a sign of a good workman).dozerSep 27, 2011

Primer Second CoatThe second coat of TOA outside primer is applied. This is one area where it doesn't pay to corner cut, although you can get by with a single coat of an inferior primer the paint job won't hold up as it will with premo paints.dozerSep 27, 2011

Ceiling FrameworkThe ceiling framework which will allow the drywall sheeting to be applied beneath. The aluminum composite material is supported by hanging strips affixed to the roofing substructure. dozerSep 27, 2011

Poured ArchwayA side image of the poured archway. The concrete is poured within a wood framework and supported by wood slats which extend to the ground.dozerSep 27, 2011

Exterior Perimeter WallHouse as it looked during finishing when the exterior perimeter wall was being built. Note the perimeter all columns will be poured around the wall sections (ie. not done first), which increases the strength of the wall joints.dozerSep 27, 2011

Ceiling Sanding PlasterHere the plaster is sanded so that the ceiling paint will adhere. The round spots are where the sheetrock gypsum board is screwed into the aluminum framework. The lines are where the joints are taped between pieces.dozerSep 27, 2011
