We plan on going to that place in new Orleans you mentioned The Bank to talk to them about a door. My plans will be done on Tuesday and then we start the financing process!

That's good Pox....nothing better than a solid slab.

go to RICCAS first its off carrolton, then go to the BANK . dont buy just have the "hold" it for you untill you find exactly what you want. pm me and i can give you some bankers #'s for construction loans, and perm. mortage .

Are you going to finish the chimney all of the way up?

It will be freestanding brick all the way up , once it reaches the roof line it rotates to make a diamond shape to the top

Very nice pox..

Thx dude!

Looks amazing. Good job Pox.

Some more progress
Side entry/ courtyard, master bed windows , brick Unplastered , brick plastered .
Put on the clay ridge tiles on roof today but no photos, now trying to decide if I want to spend the money on copper standing seam roof on our low pitch roofs or standing seam brunt slate color.... Love the copper but hate the price . I did have them do all copper flashing and copper step flashing to come after brick . Trying to bust butt to sheetrock so I can set up my tools n take a month + to trim it out and trick it out with bad to the bone molding detail

Looking real nice Mike. If I ever get over that way, gonna have to look you up

Good looking home you have there.

You gonna have to let a TV crew do a Pox's grib show.

thank you guys for the kind words ! no tv crew here lol. i thank god everyday for the many blessings and oppertunities he has provided for my fiance and i, cannot begin to explain how grateful we are

Ya'll new home is looking awesome. That thing is huge. So glad you guys have been blessed with this opportunity.

Mike that is just another example of your fine work........classy does not come close to explaining.........

This is what I've been waiting for! My chimney to be finished!!

Copper step flashing

Looks amazing Pox!!!!!!! How much property is the house sitting on? Doesnt look like alot of grass to mow.

5 minutes with a weedeater and he will be done.

not a lot, ill have a 8' brick wall enclosing what yard i do have ....just enough for the dogs to run around but not enough to own a lawn mower:). most of my yard will be brick floors ...ill post a picture of the footprint when i scan it

here is the current landscape plan , still needs a little revising

ok didnt load correctly il print and scan it

ok here we go

Got to hang out with pox yesterday at his place. I went and held the dumb end of the tape measure really. Pics don't do this place justice! The trim work is gonna be awesome in this place!

Thanks again Corey!! The dummy end is the most important end .... If you screw that up you make the guy on the smart end look dumb lol!!!
Here's some of the 3 piece door trim , a large door jamb with beaded inset panels , some of the cased openings that are not done yet

Few of a round coffered ceiling I'm build in my keeping room this weekend .

99% done , still have to sand some of the miters on the beaded molding . This house is kicking my arse but will be well worth it when we are moved in.

Starting all the footings this week for the 130' of brick courtyard wall , drive way and pads for the brick steps

Pox, the wife wants to know what goes inside of the circle?

A painting or something??

nothing as of now. this room was designed to be the dining room , but we dont have any kids and we usually travle for the holidays so we dont need a dining room. we are going to use the room for a keeping room ( koris reality tv trash show room) lol . it is wired and blocked for a chandalier in the center of the ring .

Gotcha.....thanks. Beautiful place Pox.

thanks !:)
