Update stone & paint

The stone masons (two guys working the last two days) are making progress and it's about 3/4 of the way done.

Painters are ready to spray the main floor (primed and prepped). It's been about 3 weeks tomorrow on the inside-- what he figured. A crew of around 3-5 people at a time. There will still be a lot of touch up I'm sure.

Pete and Todd are coming by Saturday for a couple of small items (light over outside entry needs to be centered, trim at master ceiling, trim at toe kick on bench seat in master).

The electricians had to wire the front steps before they could pour concrete, but they did that and now the concrete is poured, forms are off and it all looks good. The electricians put outlets and switches in the basement and upstairs and put up the exterior lights, but ran out of work for now.

The next steps are trim electrical, install counters (tomorrow?), install remaining cabinets in laundry and niches (tomorrow), install plumbing fixtures, sand and finish hardwood with one coat, finish trim out, install appliances, finish last coat on hardwood and install carpet and clean.

I still need to get the window well, stair and balcony railings ordered (comparing bids), teh front gate ordered and installed, and find a landscaper. We are also waiting on the asphalt-- they don't open until late spring.

Paint and stone

The stone work continues (1 guy, not the 30 Rigo talked about) and they are making good progress and we love the stone. The fence builders have also got a lot done and are very good guys.

Painters are about done with the basement and upstairs and are done priming the main floor so they should be wrapping up in a few days.

The copper roof at the office bay was put on today and looks great.

Electricians are starting to trim out the outlets, etc. By next week we should be able to get a lot of electrical and plumbing done. Countertops are supposed to be here this week.
