Once the drywall is done which should take about a week in a half,we can start the painting and then the floors can go in.Hopefully we can be in the house by the end of October.Keep your fingers crossed!
Lets look at some pictures
Here is the new porch area.
The new lights in the porch.
New window wells.
The gas meter gets one too.
New front light.They moved the light up a couple of feet, as the old light was right above the door.
Here is a close up of the light.
New attic hatch.
So there you have it all the action from the last two days.
I did get a chance to talk to our contractor yesterday and I asked him how much over budget he thought we were.I showed him the quote for the $73,800 and he figures we should be over about 10%,which would put us at about $80,000.
It is not what I wanted to here but it was better than I thought.I figured for some reason we would be over a lot more than that for some reason.Had he told me we were over 20% or something,I probably would have had to tell him to stop right now and we would try to get the rest finished some other way or something.
Our contractor also had one of his guys quit on him today.My brother said they had a fight about taking the trailer to the dump and I guess all hell broke loose after that and our contractor told him to "f**K off then" and that was it.He was gone.
Now it's just the new guy and our contractor.I hope this won't slow things down.
