Preparing our Lot for the Cabin

The Cabin is Delivered!

All Posts about our Modular Cabin

Foundation ready for the cabin

The next step when this was first posted was having the cabin delivered.

We were told we had to grant an easement for the water and sewer line. We own both lots, but we were told we had to grant ourselves an easement to cross our own back yard for the water and sewer. (You know somebody must have sued somebody sometime.)  The plumber, Jeremy Dills, recommended a lawyer who can “draft a permanent easement” without a survey.

That ended up not to be so. I am glad the lawyer took forever to get around to it, because the city didn’t require after all.

Finished foundation, ready for the cabin

We also heard from the cabin company that we had to have a crane. There was not enough room to slide the cabin off the truck.

We did have to have a crane.

That’s where we were at when I first posted this, waiting to find out about a crane and waiting for a lawyer. The cabin was delivered the next week in horrible weather and we should have waited. But how were we to know it would take months to get water?

The cabin is from Westwood Cabins. You can see more photos and floor plans at www.westwoodcabins.com and www.facebook.com/westwoodcabins.

The work is done by Fowler Excavating. Taylor Fowler has managed all of the subcontractors.
