Frame-walk of New Home

As an accommodation to you, a Framing Walkthrough occurs after framing, rough electrical and plumbing are complete, but before drywall is hung. The purpose of this Walkthrough is to open communication between you and the construction staff, and to verify locations of selected options. Your neighbors will also have scheduled appointments during the day, thus scheduling is very tight at this time. Due to the nature of the construction site, we suggest that you make arrangements for child care.

The Framing Walkthrough is designed to familiarize you with your new home. The Fieldstone Representative will explain and point out such features as:

• Building code requirements.
• Construction details - such as the floor joist system and the plumbing system.
• Materials use and compliance.
• Inspection process and timing by jurisdiction and third-party inspections.

The second part of the Walkthrough is a complete review of the Options you selected. The Fieldstone Representative will:

• Pinpoint what has been roughed-in or installed.
• Answer all questions you may have.
• Verify Options Locations.
• Explain why specific locations of some Options, purchased in the HomeFitting® Center on a diagram, may be altered or adjusted if necessary when installed in the actual home.
• Verify Schedule Conformance.
• Review current construction schedule timing.

For your convenience, Fieldstone will allow pre-identified Framing Walkthrough Options to be added if you request them and if they can fit into the construction schedule. Options which may be added during the Framing Walkthrough are:

• Can Light
• Light Switch
• Electrical Outlet
• Telephone Jack
• Cable TV Jack
• 220V Outlet for Dryer
• Ceiling Fan outlet with Dual Switch
• Exterior GFI Outlet
• 11O V/20-amp Dedicated Circuit

NOTE: Because of timing constraints, Fieldstone cannot agree to move electrical options which are already installed. You can ADD another electrical option in the location you prefer. THE PRICE FOR ADDING ANY OPTIONS AT THIS TIME WILL BE GREATER THAN IF THE SAME OPTIONS WERE ORDERED AT THE HOMEFITTING® CENTER PRIOR TO THE STAGE TWO CUT-OFF DATE. All changes must be approved in writing by the Buyer and Fieldstone. Bring your checkbook to pay for available changes after the Walkthrough is completed. You must pay for these changes on-site at the end of your Framing Walkthrough.

Next Question: Why can't I make more changes at these early stages?.
