Social Room: Inspections and Windows

The inspector showed up in a bad mood and was unhappy because the builders were not there for the inspection.  Because of that the inspector said it was all wrong and told us the entire room needed to be redone.  Now it is early September. The windows are not done and the floor is unfinished.  Once we rescheduled with the builders, the inspection passed, and even some minor requirements were able to be bypassed like handicap entrance being 36 inches.  Because the outside side door met those requirements we didn’t need the inside doorway to be 36 inches.  We were also able to lose the gutters on the drip edge.  The crew finished the floor, but one small issue was the coloring of the floor after the sealant was applied.  We had to redo it with different sealant. The second group (Mary Wingate) loved the new room and the building.  Now, the race to get the windows installed before the snow began.  With only minor complications, the windows were installed.  One of the windows came with the wrong number of panes, but the window guy was able to replace it that week with the correct window so it would remain historically accurate.  The windows were put in with the storm windows on the inside to meet code still remain historically accurate looking on the outside.
