More Installations

The Kitchen Hood is now in, and not a day to soon as it is raining today and cutting a hole in the roof would not have been good!
Master Bathroom sink and faucet are installed. 

Also the laundry sink, the second bathroom sink and faucet, the prep sink/steamer in the kitchen, the powder room pedestal sink and faucet, and the dishwasher hookups are all getting finished today.  Basically plumbing should be 100% complete by the end of the day :-)
The Meditation Room has the cork flooring down and is ready for finish trim.  Ignore the door on the left it needs to be installed elsewhere in the house.

Also the Front door is back off and is in the good hands of Steve of Foremost Finishes for staining.  Also all the trim is off getting stained right now. 

That's all for now.......back to work!!

The Front door is done and ready for staining
Plus we had some great sunny weather so we had lunch out on the back deck.  That's Tif, her Dad Seth, me, and my Mum Sheila

A Quick Update

A quick photo update.  Lots happening and we are now living at the house and my computer is not ;-(
Switched the trim around the stair opening and landing to a metal plate.  It looks a lot better.  The stairs are all fabricated and we will be installing them tomorrow
Handles in the Kitchen are all installed now.  Looks sharp!
Front railings are already at the powder coater.  Here is the railing going in on the back deck.
Another view.
Garage is now a shop for all the different trades.   My Father-in-law is currently set up in here making a custom Front Door for the house.  Stay tuned for something real special!
