In some areas, like with extreme temperature changes, copper used to be preferred because it is more durable and corrosion-resistant. But PEX is becoming used all over now. I just learned that.
Now it looks like you can't get theft insurance (the folks were right), so we're putting in a camera and light over the gate. It's a small house, and the contractor won't leave things lying around.
The driveway is in, and it curves so you can't see the house, which I hope is a bonus. I'm doing most of this remotely, though I was just there for the driveway install. I found a local rep who will drive by the place once a week. You need that, evidently, if you want to do anything about someone parking on your land or whatnot.
But now, because of the encroachment, we are on hold for a month until the surveyor can come out and confirm our side boundaries. Otherwise, we could have done this with just the front pins.
Good to hear about the doors. Quality probably lasts no matter what it's made of.
