House Pictures Chat Corner - Show off your house pictures!

Today the starting signal has been given. We are starting with the L-stones. Tomorrow is a break because the neighbor has to dismantle the scaffolding. On Wednesday, work will continue with leveling the heights and the foundation.

Please create a separate thread for this, here it should be about pictures of the user houses.

Watched too much Batman? How high is the budget, 5 million?

Since yesterday we have a roof! Well, not functional yet, but assembled:


These are the two roof halves; the cutout in the middle is for the dormers, the frame is for a roof window.
Since the parts are assembled on site with us, they started with the roof, in reverse order. These will now be set aside and the next parts will be assembled and placed on the roof parts. During assembly, the stack of finished parts will be taken apart from the top, so it makes sense to start with what you need last.

The two carpenters were delighted that "their" work is continuing now. They had previously helped with filling and compacting, but that was not their specialty. I asked them last night if this is nicer work now: Yes! They like it

Next to that, a section was paved again; "again" because this was part of the paving that we tore up for the construction.
My mother is also delighted: one more piece of normality around her house:

The rear now paved section will be the shed attached to the carport.
Where the young man is standing will be the carport (that will be paved later).

These are the two halves of the roof;

Oh, made of wooden beams with OSB boards. You don’t see that every day. Are those 30 cm beams, so 30 cm high? Are they blown out or filled with insulation mats? I talked a bit about these parts with a carpenter during a course two years ago, and he was rather critical if everything doesn’t come from one source that knows what it’s doing. Due to laziness when cutting insulation mats and resulting hollow spaces, and the lack of continuous counter-rafters insulation in the construction, you can build in nice thermal bridges there. Otherwise, though, probably a great lightweight solution.

They do everything themselves, so everything is from a single source. The filling is, as far as I understand, done with blown-in insulation material. Also something ecological (the [Staudenschreiner] prefers it when his houses can be dismantled again without any residue). I can gladly ask what exactly it is.
