FUBAR or SNAFU?

This week, we had our first significant screw up at the house. Luckily Mike caught it and it's being taken care of. And also lucky for us, it wasn’t our screw up so we don’t have to pay for it! Mike met the builder at the house and discovered a crew building our brick chimney and doing finishing work on the columns. At first glance, he was psyched because this was the last of the brick work that was going to be done. Then upon closer inspection, he realized that the brick was the wrong color…and the chimney was about 2/3rds done. We selected Triangle Brick – Oxford. And they were using Hanson Brick – Oxford. In the world of brick, a different manufacturer means a lot to color. Gary arrived shortly thereafter to hear the news from Mike. He then immediately had the exact same team tear down the entire chimney they had just spent all morning building. FUBAR? No. It’ll be rebuilt this week – with the right brick. I’m voting for a SNAFU on this one. A pretty pricey SNAFU for someone, we’re just not sure who yet.
