2 Beams done

Technically we are done jacking up all 3 of the beams we installed (thanks to Ryan’s Dad’s help today – they got it finished up) but 2 of the beams are really finished (bracket installed).  We have to drill holes in the steal brackets for the 3rd beam still.

Bracket with 4×4 in front as extra support

Beams with the extra supports/jacks removed

We still have some jacking up to do – we have another beam to add on the other side and the front needs to be jacked up to remove the rotted sill plate in one section and replace it.

Tuesday we are having someone come out to do some tests and design out our heating system (planning on doing a geothermal system).  Once that work is done we can complete the planned demo and start working on the construction projects like dormers!
