Last night it rained. No, it POURED! This morning there was an inch of water in parts of the basement. One of the carpenters from KC Construction was busy using a broom to push the standing water out of the basement and into the light wells.

I had to meet Brad at the job site this afternoon. It was raining so hard I didn't want to get out of my car! When I got there, the carpenters were packing up for the day. They couldn't get anything done because of the rain.

Brad also had to cancel the scheduled drilling and pouring of the piers because of the rain. Ugh.

Brad said the plumber is coming tomorrow to install the sump pumps in the three light wells. Then we'll be able to pump the water out of the light wells.

This afternoon I got confirmation that the fireplace bid from West Coast Insulation does include the installation. We'll probably go with them because with the Four Seasons Remodeling Center we would have to obtain a separate installation quote from their installer.
