Oh So Close

The finish line is in sight, and this little carriage house is looking great! Yesterday we painted the laundry closet and installed the stacking washer/dryer unit. Fortis came today to hook up the gas line, and the heating system was completed.  The tile work in the upstairs bathroom is just about done, and and remaining flooring will be installed on Friday. Electrical will also be finished by the end of the week.

Water line and finishing

The city of Kelowna and the plumber arrived on Tuesday and upgraded the water service from 1/2" 3/4" to accommodate the needs of the carriage house. The painters have finished up, and we are ready to install carpets next week.  The date for the final inspection has been scheduled for March 3rd.

Nearing Completion

Flooring was completed and cabinets were installed.  Tile work continues in the upstairs bathroom.  Some small details to catch this next week, followed by finals for paint, heating, electrical, plumbing.

Tile work, garage doors and cabinets

Gwen, Bob & Debi were busy this past week doing the tile work in the bathrooms and front entry.  A nice charcoal tile with black grout, the grey laminate floors were delivered and are acclimatizing in the house for the next few days.  On Friday the JP Garage Doors installed the Steel Craft overhead door and Spectrum Cabinets delivered and started the installation of the kitchen cabinets.

Doors, trim & paint

Time is racing by and it seems difficult to keep up with the blog relative to the pace of work.  The drywall looks great, cleanup was completed on time and the painters were on-deck ready to prime the entire house right on schedule.  Doors were delivered and installed, followed by delivery of the moldings and the completion of all of the trim work.  This past week the painters were busy prepping the trim work along with 3 coats of paint on the trim and 2 coats of paint on the walls.  Next week Monday through Friday is our window to have the tile work completed.
