Day 2 of Framing

And lo on the second day Wayne Homes said 'Let there be walls'. And there were walls. On day 2 the framers got all the exterior walls up and marked locations on the floor where all the interior walls would be.

 So the mason's work while being very fast, left a lot to be desired for quality. In addition to the footer tile issue I had with them, these 2 photos show how far off the top of wall was. The sill plate spanning the irregular wall height leaves daylight showing - and that is with a double layer of the seal material between the sill and block. Normally there is only 1 layer! It is not up to the weight of the house to try to crush the sill plate into large gaps - not that it even could in this instance. Yes it can be caulked (and better be) but still, this is easily avoidable when the goal isn't to get in and out of a job site as fast as humanly possible.
The emphasis on quality is was what I was sold on. So far, the emphasis of some subcontractors has been on speed - in some cases at the cost of quality. My Wayne Homes reps are listening to what I find and have been addressing most things but there would and should be fewer things to address if the subs focused on accuracy more and raw speed less. To be fair the waterproofing sub did an amazing job and the framers so far appear to be doing pretty good. There have been a few things I've spotted that made me cringe a little but nothing serious. My biggest concern is the crew of 4 guys framing has 3 of them under 20. They all work hard but there is absolutely no substitute for experience. And at their age, they can't possibly have it. Still, you can't help but be impressed but what they get done in a day. I just hope there is nothing more than superficial cosmetic things when they are done.
