Monday worksite photos from Bill. The group below includes homeowners Wirat and Tatiya Sapithak who operate a small noodle cart. With their two daughters ages 10 and 5, they live in a small temporary house they built out of wood and metal sheets. The roof leaks and the wooden supports have been eaten hollow by termites. DDT was sprayed to control the termites, making it a toxic environment.
In the past months they have worked on site, hauling everything from blocks, roof tiles and roof trusses to doors and window frames. Tatiya says "We're so excited to live with new friends in our new neighborhood."
This morning on site there's the beginning of their new house: foundation, slab, and partial walls.
And so, the work week begins.
And so, the work week begins.
How wonderful to meet your homeowner family -- please send a New Jersey "hi" to Wirat and Tatiya Sapithak.
ReplyDeleteThis looks way more difficult than building a house in one week in Mississippi -- or a house in 8 months in Paterson, NJ!
Keep the photos and stories coming....
