Day 18: We Have Cement!



The inspector did indeed come on Friday... and so far, so good.



The one thing the workers apparently had to do was replace the remaining clay sewage pipe with more plastic pipe (this part had previously been under the concrete patio behind our house; with the concrete gone, it was now accessible). Apparently clay pipe is not allowed under new construction.



The good news: I believe all of our sewage pipe is now brand new, or just 2 years old (from our initial problem, back when we first bought the house). That means we should have no sewage problems for years to come, methinks.

Now, with everything apparently looking good so far, the workers were at the house bright and early Saturday morning. And with them, brought... cement! It was a pretty messy-looking affair, as a large tube carried the cement from the street in front of the house all the way to the back. The workers seemed to use the cement hose haphazardly, going from one side to the other...









And here's a shot of the cement truck, in front of the house:
