Day 2 of the House Lift

Sorry that these are a bit late. We ended up having to spend a good chunk of Tuesday night at the hospital as my son Caleb was having problems breathing. The doctor was thinking that it was because of a cold that he had but that it could also indicate asthma, which would really suck. I had asthma as a kid and it’s not a fun thing to have to deal with…

Back to the house though.

When I first got home from work on Tuesday it didn’t look like there was much change from Monday besides the front stairs being removed. After taking a closer look at it though I could see that they had started to install the steel joists on the bottom of the house to strengthen it and start to level it a bit.

Below are the photos for this…
