Estimated Move In Date!

Today, we got a best case/worst case move in date from our GC. Happy days! It must mean the end is in site. The best case was 8/27 and the worst case was 8/29. Both overshoot our much revised goal of 8/20, but I'm not complaining. I'm just ecstatic to be so near the end.

The electricians are done. The tilers are gone (they will have to come back to do the fireplace surround and the backsplash).

Scheduled for this week is the plumber and carpeting. Hopefully the counter tops will go in also. If they make it in time, the plumber can hook up the sinks at the same time. Otherwise, he will need to come back.

Next week, landscaping, sod and beach will be installed outside and the hardwood floors will be finished inside (this will take the entire week and effectively prevent any other interior work from being performed).

The final week, they will hang the doors, do touch up work and clean.

Here are a few pictures of what was done at the end of last week.

The front porch light was hung


And the pantry light had been lowered



The tile behind the pedestal sinks was completed and grouted.





The laundry room and powder room floors were grouted



And the hood in the kitchen was hung (but didn't have the chimney on yet)
