Well today was a dud. We have decided to hire someone to install forced hot air heat upstairs and downstairs with an a/c unit for the upstairs. We found someone, got a quote that was reasonable. Then today they came to start work (first a walk through then they went to put in for a permit). Well during the walk through he mentioned that the boilermate we have would not hook up to the new furnace and that we would need a new water heater (not mentioned before when we discussed this). So Ryan called to clarify when I verified that his quote did not mention a water heater and he had assumed we were keeping the oil furnace for the hot water (which doesn’t make sense since in his quote he has taking out the furnace mentioned).
So the project is on hold, not sure if he will get us a new quote with a water heater or what. I believe he’s waiting to hear back from us at this point but Ryan is a bit busy at work so it will have to wait a few days for us to decide what to do. I’m totally bummed, I thought this was going to move forward and get done – now this set back. We have so many issues whenever we try to hire someone for work (we’ve been trying to hire an exterior painter to strip the porch and do some painting – no luck so far). Just so frustrating.
In other news, pig roast this weekend! I guess i don’t have to stay around the house today for the plumber, I could go to Bjs today and get the zitis made for the weekend.
Oh and Ryan cut the shelving for the closet so i can install the closet system now if I have a good break to do so. Baby girl is napping on her tummy right now so I can’t leave the room to do that kind of project but i might move her to her bouncy chair so i can take advantage of this nap.
