Today the countertops were installed. They're Cambria New Quay Quartz. We went with Quartz since it's very durable and highly resistant to staining so it should be hassle free for a long time to come.
Today is the start of week 12. They should be done on Wednesday just making their Thanksgiving deadline. They installed some outside lights, laid the floor in our room and part of the closet, grouted some of the tiles, mounted furnace vent covers, and more. The grout is still wet so it will lighten up quite a bit.
Today is the end of week 11. We're not done yet, but getting closer. The contractors finished the floors everywhere except the master bed and closet. They also installed the quarter-round moldings, mounted mirrors in the master bath, and mounted the TV. The electrician installed more lights. The plumbers installed the water softener, washer and dryer, and a temporary kitchen sink since out counters won't be here for another two weeks. The guy did come to measure for the counters today so hopefully we won't run into any issues.
Today they got a lot done. The new electric service was finally installed so we've got lights throughout the house again. The contractors worked on the floors more and are probably more than half done. The plumbers were back and installed two toilets, some of the shower, and the hot water heater. Another team was here to install a storm door. It doesn't look as nice with the storm door, but we like being able to leave the front door open so we can see outside. The appliances are back in the kitchen so we'll have a fridge and range soon. The dishwasher will have to wait until the counters, sink, and garbage disposal are in.
Today the painters finished up just about everything. They're still waiting for the old electric to be disconnected and the new one to get hooked up so they can finish one of the walls inside. Hopefully that will happen tomorrow or Friday at the latest. The contractor started installing the new wood floors which look nice and will really make it look like we're almost there.
Today the contractor was here to deliver the new floor. Another guy started on the shower grout before the contractor realized that it wasn't the right color. He had purchased "smoke" from one company which was brown instead of "smoke grey" from another company which is supposed to be grey. So I helped remove the brown grout which wasn't terrible since it was still wet. Hopefully it doesn't stain the tile though.
The painters finished the two bedrooms and most of the living room and kitchen. They also painted the quarter rounds which will be installed after the floor. They'll be back tomorrow to finish up.
The electrician was here installing lights. We're still running off of the old service because our electrical inspector apparently has trouble filing filing paperwork on time. Hopefully that will happen soon!
