Building a Custom Home in Portofino in Clayton...A Diary, Day 10
OK so the concrete is poured and has been allowed to set, the next phase is to remove the frames, which is done after a few days. The re-bar on the footing is pushed down and will be encased in the concrete that will be poured for the floor.
The house at Lot 31 will have a walk out basement and patio so the walls were only poured on three sides.The basement will have a bedroom, a full bathroom, office and large den. Building a Custom Built Home in Portofino in Clayton is a great experience as this team of builders are the very best custom builders in the Triangle. They have a level of professionalism you won't find every day.
After the walls have set they need to be waterproofed before the dirt is pushed back up against them. The walls are painted with a water repellent and then a water proof backing is applied.There is also a drain and pipe to channel the moisture away from the walls.
Here are the links to the stages up to this point.
