Time for a change!!!!

When we first met our contractor he said it should be an easy project completed in 2 -3 months.

THAT WAS NOVEMBER; ITS NOW JUNE!!!!

Many deadlines have come and gone without even an apology from our contractor or an idea of when the project would be done. We had believed that at he had our best interests at the forefront of this project. We soon learned that mismanagement of funds and delayed deadlines meant that we would need to continue this project without his help. We have taken over the general contracting job and completed more in two weeks than had been accomplished in two months under his management.

The hardwood floors are installed and finished, and the cabinets have been installed and are awaiting the soapstone countertop.

As the general contractor we need to higher subs to complete the work we are not able to do or don't have the time to do. We are in a time crunch so we hire several subs to do the work. The tile work is being done by a husband and wife duo Chuck and Courtney. They are wonderful people and do fantastic work. We think they would be perfect for a new HGTV show and in about 3 months a new tiler will join the family. We are so fortunate to find wonderful help and new friends.

A lot has changed since our last post. But before we get to the good stuff here is where we are now.

All of the drywall has been installed but it has taken 2 weeks longer than expected. Most of the issues are due to our contractor not working on the necessary areas needed to move forward.

The texture is being completed SLOWLY but it is moving forward. The kitchen was to be completed first so the floor could be installed.

Finally after waiting weeks for the hardwood floor to be installed in the kitchen and den it is done. Our contractor has taken weeks to do what he said will only take days. In the meantime we have started some painting of rooms. Our master bedroom is almost done we hope to have the wood floor installed soon.
