Normally someone would cringe if you told them that you saw someone throwing mud at your walls. But in this case, it's okay. It's only drywall mud, and with a lot of space comes a lot of mud. It went pretty quickly though. They have now finished sanding and mudding and taping and are almost ready for the priming before the paint. Also they have basically finished the exterior painting now too so the exterior, minus the grading, the landscaping and, oh yeah, the garage doors, it looks like a finished house. Well, there's also those Pella stickers in the windows! They needed to finish our drywall before installing the openers for the garage doors so we have been stuck with plywood to this point. This should be very soon though. Next week, they are supposed to build our stairs, complete with bamboo treads, 1x4 pickets and black painted risers and railing. To get a preview, I did a computer model of this so we could check out the paint colors. Soon we should have some actual pictures to compare. Also this week, they will be setting our doors and trim. Cool, cool, cool. Interesting side note. Just to prove that it's not always the builder's fault when things are late. Yesterday, Ryan our super, was trying to get over to the house to grade with a bobcat and the truck he uses to haul it broke down. No biggie. We'll grade another day.
Until next time!
