Progress report --- Week 10

View of where Jonathan's closet in the new bedroom will be, complete with newly installed window (the one on the left). The holes where the other two windows were (facing us) will be walled over.



View of the new bedroom, with beautiful picture window installed. You can see a little of the vaulted ceilings here.


Progress accomplished this week:

--Picture window installed in bedroom
--Skylight in kitchen installed, dry-wall repaired
--Framing done for interior of master bedroom/bathroom suite
--Stairs built in garage
--Shower unit moved to garage study
--Kitchen cabinet installed in garage study. We're re-using the old one from our kitchen renovation, although we will need to buy a new sink to satisfy the building inspector. Wagner says he can trim some of our leftover Corian countertop to fit it.
--Brickwork done on most of garage
--Foundation at front of house dug out. Turns out that we do have a footer for part of the front stretch, so we're only going to have to pay $2000 for two support piers. Phew.
--Cabinets for master bathroom selected and ordered. We're ordering AristoKraft cabinets, Landen door style, Maple wood in a saddle stain. The photo on the bottom shows the cabinet style but in a different color; the one on the top is the stain color we're going with.





Obstacles encountered this week:

--Jonathan and I changed our minds about the skylight and the furnace location. See previous post.
--Cold rain for a couple of days. This slowed/halted brickwork.
--Bathtub deemed too small and swapped out. See earlier post.
