Garage Steps and Siding...





Yesterday, the garage steps were made and installed. The siding guys finished up the right side of the house, and started on the front. They are going to finish the front today. The dry wallers should be sanding today, and the trim guys should be hanging trim and interior doors tomorrow. Painters are still on for Saturday to prime.

Updates...

No new pics today. Things look pretty much the same inside. The drywall mud is drying, hoping they can sand it on Thursday. Trim will be installed on Friday. The painters will prime the walls/ceilings on Saturday. The siding crew is working on the 3rd side of the house. The front of the house will be the last, and hopefully the quickest, since it's so narrow and some of it will be stone, in lieu of siding. We're waiting for the grinder pump to be installed, as well as one or two other underground utlilites. Once that happens, we can really work on the "yard" and figure out how many loads of dirt/top soil we'll need. We hope to have our driveways poured the end of next week. We're so close, yet so far away...

Craft Room Cabinets



Here is the craft room/office. We are very happy with how it looks, so far. The opening in the cabinets is for a peninsula type desk, similiar to what we had in the last house.

Cabinets 1 of 2





All of our cabinets were installed today. They look great! The house is very dusty, hence the poor quality of pictures.

More Siding...


On Friday, the siding crew worked on the back of the house. They finished up the screened porch siding yesterday. On Monday, they'll start on the right side of the house. This morning, Chris and 2 guys are installing the cabinets for the kitchen, bathrooms, laundry room, and craft room. Can't wait to see them!! Pics to follow...

The drywall guys came out today and out the tape coat on. They will come back out tomorrow and put another coat on the drywall. The masons are coming out to build the steps for the front porch. The siding crew will be back out as well to work on the back of the house.
