Sheetrock


Today they began putting up sheetrock on the ceilings upstairs. The pictures are of the bathroom and the two bedrooms.
We met with Brett Griffin this afternoon to make several decisions including the window/door casings, baseboard, the staircase ballusters and newel posts, crown molding, and sound proofing.
It turns out the roofing crew was fined $1,500 for not wearing hard hats and safety glasses while working on our house when an OSHA agent stopped in for a random inspection. They also forgot to fasten down the house wrap after finishing with the shingles, which allowed rainwater to come through the roof last week.
Anyway, they have a heater and fans in the basement to defrost and dry it out so that they can ready the floor tomorrow so that the floor can be poured on Monday. They will continue with the drywalling, and probably put in the front door.
The next two weeks will be pretty busy with picking all the different flooring, the paint colors for all the walls, and stain colors.
Oh, and I also got a key so that I am no longer locked out!
