Final inspection passed!!

Image
 We passed final inspection! Officially have our certificate of occupancy. We are nearly done the kitchen, completed the backsplash last week.  First meal was Costco burrito bowls. Added landings for the front and side door. And moved some gravel as walkways and a future base for the patio.    And we had to put the TV and stereo in the living room even though we have no couch ;)  Washer/dryer speed queens also delivered. No frills, just a solid design.

Plumbing finished, first fire, countertops

Starting to get the cabinet and drawer pulls installed.  Plumbing is all done.  Fired up the wood stove for the first time this weekend, couple cool nights so a good time to burn it in.  Stairs done on the front by the patio door too. Mechanical final this week then overall final inspection and done!!  

We have countertops in the kitchen!

Kitchen counters are in and we really like them. Plumbing also finished. And we also installed the wood stove and chimney. 

Mud room almost done

 We finished the last of the chinking inside last weekend!  After that was cleaned up, we finished the flooring in the mud room.  Ready for washer/dryer and a few cabinets.    Also finished the slab counter for the powder room.

Kitchen almost done!

 Kitchen cabinets were delivered a couple weeks ago, we got everything installed. Also got lucky and find a range hood cover that was the perfect size and a really good deal, so picked it up and installed it.  Got the vent insert nstalled this weekend. Finished some lighting above the sink and in the hallway as well as the island plugs and dishwasher.  We installed the shower slider doors in the master as well, and the mirror above the vanity.   Oh and we also got fridge, stove and dishwasher delivered!

Flooring, chinking, stairs, vanity

 Chugging along. We have the kitchen cabinets ordered and should be ready in a couple weeks.  Picked a different bath vanity and sold the other one . Chinking in bedroom finished, and flooring done too through bedroom and closet. Also did all the flooring up the stairs, and wired some low voltage lighting in the stringers. And have trimmed out some doors and a little baseboard work done.

Getting more done

 We finished tiling the master bathroom, floor and entire shower.   The kitchen lighting(LEDs and island pendants) is installed along with the the mud room light.      And we started the flooring downstairs.
