And the first PUNCH LIST is in

Finally got the inspection today.  Took them both to do it.  All in all, I really can't complain, considering the size of the house and the amount of things they were going over today.  So we're not quite ready for the drywall and insulation to come in, but we're not too far out either.  Of the 15 items mentioned, the majority of the work is going to fall on the plumber, or were a heads up of things to look out for during insulation.  So here it is, as knit picky as is seems.

1.  Nail Plate missing in Master Bath (next to shower)
2.  Strap on plumbing pipe missing in Master Bath shower
3.  Bolts need to be added to front porch to attach rafters to beams
4.  Smoke detector required in cathedral ceiling
5.  Pickets on back deck steps don't meet size requirement (holes are too large)
6.  The last three steps leading up to second story seem inconsistent in size and are odd (not sure if we have to fix this or if it was just a general statement)
7.  There is possible dead space in area above master bedroom triangle wall
8.  Make sure to insulate all the way up to the top of the rafters to avoid dead space in master bedroom
9.  Plumbing vent pipe is undersized for amount of water lines in house, must increase to 3"
10.  Plumbing "T" in powder room does not meet code
11.  Dryer vent must be made of smooth solid surface moving in the direction of flow to prevent lint buildup (had not been installed yet)
12.  Need to provide paperwork for can lights to insure they are IC rated
13.  Russell from Geosolice must call in and provide detailed information about the size and thickness of duct work, insulation of duct work, duct tape and fire sealant.
14.  All holes drilled through each level of floor (including those used for initial drainage) must be filled with fire stop.
15.  Frame all chases and call for re-inspection to insure none of the insulation of duct work is disturbed.
