Our contractor thinks he'll be able to have everything done by the 15th...and then the hardwood floor guy can come in and work his magic. He'll need a couple days, and then the house will be all ours.
I am crossing all my fingers {and toes} that we'll be able to put our Christmas tree up before the holiday comes and goes.
Yesterday the spackle guy, and his partner-in-crime, were able to make a lot of progress smoothing out the walls and patches. Our contractor built up our basement window so he could re-grade the dirt under our screened-in porch, started installing the last basement window and hung most of the interior doors. Our poor hardwoods have taken a beating through this reno. I can't wait to see them after they get some much needed TLC.

It's really all coming together. I'm crossing my fingers in hopes you get to move in soon, too!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Debbie! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you!
ReplyDeleteFingers and toes crossed over here! It would be great if you got to put up your Christmas tree this year! Can't wait to see the floors when they're refinished!
ReplyDeleteThanks Brandi!! Thanks Diana!!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you guys stopped by. :)
Your floors look like they need work, yeah. Are they fine now? Are they going through maintenance? I mean, there's stuff out there in the market that could handle a mess like this easy. Scrubbers and cleaners and stuff. Some of them are very legit. I was wondering whether you've been using those, since I've been thinking of recommending one to my friend.
