Our House Looks Like a House Now
Yesterday was the first time that I have walked inside of our house that we are building and didn’t have to use my imagination to see how things would look. The drywall guys covered the last remaining places where there were previously just studs.
They also did a coat of mud as well which gets us one step closer to texture on the walls. The texture is significant because our Forman has told us that once the texture is on the walls that he can give us a pretty accurate finish date. That means that early next week we will know when it is time to move and do some final planning.
We should still be looking at the end of March which remarkably is only about a month and a half away. It is hard to imagine that in less then 2 months that I could be sleeping our new house.
There obviously are a lot of things that still need to get done once the texture is applied such as:
- Trim
- Paint
- Tile
- Cabinets
- Appliances
- Final electrical
- Landscaping
All of those things are really on the down slope of getting the house done though and if they keep up the present pace we should be on target for the end of May.
Now if only the brick guys would get it in gear and finish…
