Week 4 progress....

Well, this seems to be dragging a little. Trim work on the cabinets was put in place, electricians in and out, still waiting for some of their work to be completed before cabinets can be finished. Painters have been in and out too, tons of SANDING. Then, this morning (Friday) around 8:00 am a TEAM of painters "blew in" and began taping everything up, they covered and taped EVERYTHING except the walls. Within minutes I did not have access to a refrigerator or the laundry room. I managed to get the dogs outside really quick (much to the dogs dismay) and once the painters finished their prep-work there was no access to that part of the house, or the backyard. The yard gates were locked and I could not get to them from the alley either!

After their prep-work (which only took minutes it seemed) they began sanding and sanding and sanding. Fortunately this time the sand did not filter through as much with all the prep work. After lunch they came back and "blew in" the texture. Took about 2.5 hours. When I got home around 4 all the plastic cover and tape was gone, and dogs were HAPPY to see me......and thirsty....





This photo is of the dogs, OUTSIDE without food and water, and me not able to get to them! The Gates were locked so couldn't get there from the alley either!


Hardware is being put in place, and I HOPE HOPE the counter tops are installed next week!
