We were off last week (July 25
th), but went back to work on August 1
st on the 2020 Habitat recycle house in the Douglass Community in east Plano. Prior to our work day, a couple of important tasks were completed – new windows and air conditioning were installed. This allowed us to work in a couple of areas:
- Floors – we started to lay down the floors in the bedrooms. By the end of the day, almost three bedroom floors were completed.
- Exterior window trim – replacing the windows meant replacing the exterior trim boards around the windows. We also needed to replace the foam board insulation beneath the trim boards, as well as caulking around the trim boards once they were nailed in. Everything was completed except for one piece of trim board that needed to be purchased.
There does appear to be some issues with our sign-up computer system, so please bear with us as we work through them.
