With the drywall complete, the walls have been primed and are ready for finishing touches.
Levi is slowly getting accustomed to his future home. Although, he doesn't quite get it. He still runs up to the front windows looking for the cat that used to live here.
These pieces of wood are our old newell posts. We want to do something cool with them. Anyone got a suggestion?
A couple more photos of the rooms. They clean up nicely. Now, we just need some doors.
The back stairwell is coming along, but at a much slower pace than originally laid out. Brett & I were told it would take 2 weeks total; all the pieces were supposed to arrive already pre-constructed to make for easy installation. Unfortunately, that has not been the case. They have already spent 4 weeks on the stairs and, as you can see, they are probably 2/3 finished. They still need to install most of the railings and the treads. #Fail.
This is an interesting view of the back patio door. The new brick door framing is vertical, adjacent to the horizontal brick. But, just above that, you can see the former back door arch in the brickwork. It hints at what once was.
As you can imagine, Brett and I have bought a ton of fixtures and elements, read: tile, sinks, bath hardware, etc. Bobby, our contractor, has kindly and patiently housed most items in his office. They take up a fair chunk of room. Bobby is 6'2" and our pile is nearly as tall as he is. I'm sure he's looking forward to getting that space back. Soon, Bobby, very soon.

The tile is beginning to be installed. The flooring in the mechanical room is in place, waiting to be grouted.
The cement in the master bathroom shower has been poured. Next week, we should have tile too.
