Progress report
We have had a big week. A lot had been accomplished and the push to finish just got more intense. What is not shown is that we have also finished up loose ends in terms of tile, grout. We have done most of the base board in the whole house. I am chasing everybody to clean up where ever they go. I am going behind with a vacuum cleaner and that makes everyone more careful how they move around the house. We have also prepared the garage doors for installation.
Anyone that has built a house for themselves will know that the final details take an enormous effort but we are wrapping up very quickly. Feels so good.
This coming week:
-We will start the mosaic for the pool
-Counter tops in kitchen are installed
-Kitchen will be 100% wrapped up
-Counter top in Master bath is installed
-Tile for master balcony will be finished
-All based boards will be painted
-All mirrors are going to be installed
-Roof will be finished up.
-We should have power turned on.
-Plumbing details will be wrapped up.
