Well gang we finally got our permits๐๐ก๐ ๐ (it's an absolutely hilarious/painful story)and are now in pursuit of tradespeople to start the foundation, and once the house is lowered on foundation, the roof. The timing of this article couldn't be better -- way back I tried to put together an all woman crew for the Yellow House project only to find one great local female plumber (yay but๐). It is really hard to find women in the home construction sector and I know we all know why. So -- know any women in the trades interested and available to help build our foundation and roof? It's a unique project and we promise a great work environment. Please DM or email [email protected]
Thanks folks! Here we go!๐

By 6am this morning Yellow House pulled into her new home๐๐ก๐ Nickel Bros
Pardon the francais, but it is a delightful mindf**k walking inside the house because it feels like we're still in Esquimalt. Dave and I were immediately hit with emotion.There was so much work we did over the years to make this happen, esp this last week on such a ludacris time frame. We have to acknowledge all the great efforts by our excavators at Stoney Creek Trucking and Excavation. Thank you for everyone's support and engagement on this precedent setting project!! Proves that saving liveable and oldie homes can and should be done.
Stay tuned for the process of moving back into Yellow House, while working as our own general contractors. Stay tuned!
