Tim and Rick - Dynamic Duo minus one






Tim and Rick continue to install windows, although Brian wasn't here to help during these photos that day. The three of them are the "Keysor builders" who have worked on our home from the get go (over the past 8 months). We refer to them affectionately with friends and family as our "Harrison boys". We are all similar in age, so it has been fun to get to know them and hear about their lives outside of work. They are all great guys (and daddies) and we are hopeful that they will come back down once their work is done to enjoy our big party (hopefully a pig and corn roast in the fall) so that they can see their work completed once we are all done with our portion of the build. They have done a great job. They continue here with the fixed glass window installation.
To add to the previous Andersen window order issues, 6 of the 8 fixed glass panel jambs were manufactured incorrectly (too wide) and 2 of the 8 were too narrow. So, 6 of the windows had to have jambs taken apart and "ripped" on the table saw to fit the appropriate depth of the front window wall framing. The other 2 will have to have the jambs removed and new jambs constructed to fit them (a bunch of replacement jamb lumber was shipped from Andersen distribution as a part of the Andersen rep's assessment of the damage).
