Work has continued at a crazy pace here. We are still here every night and all weekend – basically until we move in! The big things recently include finishing the bathroom (completely minus shoe molding which will all be installed at once at the end) and getting the hallway floor installed last week. Trim work …
It’s been quite a while since I updated and a lot of progress has been made! I’m going to just have to go by pictures in order! While Bella’s room got primed (thanks Brad) Ryan started working on the trim in the bathroom! Next up we handed the bathroom over to brad and he got …
Bathroom progress and Bella’s room progress has continued. The doors arrived so we got the bathroom door hung so Ryan could finish tiling the floor, then grout and finally seal all the grout! I also finished the electrical in there (minus the actual vanity light since we haven’t purchased one yet). The bathroom is …
We made some progress last week before going away to Boston for the weekend. Brad got the shower plumbing finished so we can officially shower and bath at the new house! I got the spackling in Bella’s room potentially finished! It’s ready for sanding at least and then maybe touch ups. Ryan spent an evening …
Last week I got the first coat of blue (Behr Ultra : Sea Foam) on the walls. On Monday Ryan got the shower grouted! On Tuesday he caulked the shower. On Wednesday during naptime I got the second coat of paint on the walls! The plumbing for the shower started going in last night! We …
2 weekends of updates – I missed last weekend and we had started tiling! So here’s a recap of progress from the past 2 weekends. The weekend of the 15th – Friday and Saturday Ryan got the Kerdi system installed in the shower after sanding the bathroom. Once sanded I was able to see what …
The taping and spackling continue. The bathroom is almost done, some of the corners need a side done or touchups but we can easily finish that up this week. Bella’s room I think the taping is done now (maybe one small seam in the built-in area left) and spackling continues in there. Alex’s room we’ve …
As I’ve mentioned we are focusing on 2 bedrooms (Alex and Bella’s) and the smaller bathroom at the moment, hoping if we get those finished we can move in before finishing the rest. So we’ve started taping and spackling the bathroom and Bella’s room. My pictures aren’t the very latest progress but show some progress …
We took our annual ‘birthday week’ off between Ryan’s and my birthday. It sure is a bit different having kids though – and not living in the house we are renovating yet. I haven’t updated in a while so let me just update by project. We’ve been working on Siding before this week off … …
Well we had planned to hire someone to sheetrock but they never got back to us and after missing our first appt we didn’t like the track record of having to re-schedule or re-reach out ourselves (I did reach out by email asking about the quote and got no response) so I guess he didn’t …
