Day 89: Plaster preparation, continued

We are getting closer to being ready for plastering. Here is the list of plaster preparation tasks we worked on Friday.
  • Trevor continued filling electrical and plumbing channels in the walls to provide a level surface for plastering
  • Joshua continued applying diamond mesh metal lath to the interior windows
  • I completed applying foam insulation to cracks and holes in the walls
  • Trevor applied masking tape and plastic sheet to the northeast corner windows to keep plaster off the glass and frames
  • Trevor installed a metal door and frame over the fire sprinkler valve on the north wall
  • Trevor removed soil from the east wall to a point approximately 6 inches below the final grade
To prepare for erosion control during winter rains, I spread, raked in and watered seed on the steeper slopes. I look forward to seeing it sprout in the coming weeks. Thanks for reading. I appreciate your comments.
