Working on the kitchen and bath

Image
Now that the flooring is finished, we installed kitchen cabinets and bath vanity . Countertops almost done just need a bit of finishing around the edges. Siding guy is making good progress too. Also found a good deal on a new stove, picked it up the other day. Just need microwave and fridge. Down to 4 weeks. We just had our first snow!! Not even October yet geez!

Closer!

Electricians were out and finished about 90% of final. Just a couple ceiling fans and the outside lighting after siding is completed. Framers are also back to finish the roof line, and siding is getting started.

Flooring almost done

Spent the day installing the flooring, about 75% done, just need to finish bedroom and closet. Click together, floating, easy install. 100% waterproof too. The turkeys were hanging out in the yard. Pressure tank for the water system was also installed.

Priming done, painting now

Image
Cleaned the dust Thursday night after work. Took Friday off and sprayed 10 gallons of primer , went pretty quick, 2 hours for entire garage and all upstairs, not including setup and cleaning. Today spraying paint. The "mix" turned out a bit darker than we thought so Jessica is running to hardware store to pick up a couple gallons of white to mix in :) Sprayer had a problem with one of the internal check valves, cost me a couple hours of messing around until I fixed it. About 12 gallons of paint was enough to do 2 coats on everything. Ready for cleanup, and picking  up flooring today.

Drywall is finished and garage door installed

The drywall mud is done and the texture should hopefully be sprayed tomorrow. And the garage door is installed, yay! Should be priming inside before the end of the week and using some vacation days.
