Modern Eichler Remodel: Week 3

Week 3: 
Things that you didn’t know you needed to know…

Old houses have old sewer lines. And the only way to fix a bad sewer blockage is to go through a toilet. Not ideal.

So we had a sewer lateral clean-out pipe installed at the house this week.


What I learned: When the installer tells you it has to be right underneath your front door – don’t believe them.

It was a change in approach from what they quoted and a terrible design decision. When in doubt call your architect and don’t let them start digging holes in your courtyard…


After a hour of back and forth, we resolved the issue and they installed the sewer lateral clean out in the front yard. (A less obvious placement).
 

Design Sketches

On a more enjoyable topic, David has done some amazing sketches of the kitchen and front elevation. So fun!
