The builder says it’s going to be a “mad dash to the finish.” We are hoping to move in in 5-6 weeks. I don’t know about that but I’m holding out hope. Now is when a lot of the fun decorative touches come and I’m excited about all that.
Carpentry took up all of June. Our water heater was installed. We re-did the stairs to make them look square/modern. Front and back porch ceilings put in. The breezeway was sheetrocked. The fireplace got tile.
And finally, the exterior work began.
The large tree in the front yard was removed because it was diseased.
Moving on to the interior finishing now in August… it is AWFUL to go to the house because it’s so hot and humid. I have tried an ice vest and various personal fans to no avail.
I hope to follow this post with news about paint progress – he is beginning this week but starting with the baseboards (= not very exciting). We are also getting our manufactured kitchen, living room, and master bath cabinets installed this week. That I am very excited about!
