I apologize that this has taken me so long to post, but I have been dealing with a family emergency. I'm currently typing this from my iPad since I had to travel to NY unexpectedly, so if the formatting looks a little weird- I apologize. I will make all adjustments as soon as I get to a desktop to adjust the format.
The following day (Day 89) all bathroom counter tops had been installed. Also our dishwasher appeared and waiting in the kitchen. I spoke with our PM for our weekly call and he informed me that our driveway forms was going up in preparation for them to pour the following week.
Up until seeing good picture, hubby was apprehensive about the bathroom Classico granite selection. I love it and he's actually in love with it now.

Week 14
Day 92 (11.04.13): I pulled up and noticed lots of movement inside the house. Much to my surprise all of the toilets, sinks, faucets, our water heater, shower heads, and kitchen Granite was being installed. It definitely felt like Christmas as I walked room to room to see a crew working diligently to install different things.

Day 93: I didn't go by the house
Day 94 (11.06.13): The electrician came by to install all of the outlets, light switches, and lighting through out the home. Our front door was installed and stained, and the railing was stained. We noticed that behind our back door there was some swelling on the wall. When hubby touched it he noticed that a piece of the drywall appeared to have been crushed. We called our PM and he states he saw it during his walk-thru and had plans for someone to come and repair that piece of the drywall. Our cabinet is still M.I.A and our PM was under the impression it would have arriveyf the week before. I'm not picky- I just hope we have that cabinet by closing. The dishwasher is still in the box and waiting to be installed. Maybe they are waiting for our other appliances to arrive before they start installing.

Day 95 (11.07.13): hubby visited the house since I'm gone and he reports that all of the carpet was installed. The concrete still has not been poured due to all the rain, but as soon as it dries yo we will have a driveway and several walkways. He states Guardian was present doing their thing and so he stayed out of their way and documented all of green tape markups from the PM.

I really like how the driveway is a little curved.
ReplyDeleteOnly 11 days left!!!! :-) Have you started packing yet?
They were required to partially curve the driveway due to a drainage line to the left of the driveway. Texas laws states a driveway has to be at least 3 feet from any pipes. I am ashamed to say that I have not packed anything. Though we are closing on the 20th were not moving in until the 30th. So maybe next week I will start tackling it.
DeleteHow beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteHave you started packing? I have!!! OMG it's such a good feeling and very exciting to pack! Been doing a little dance every day because we are that.much.closer!
Your granite is beautiful!
Thanks girl! I've been out of town due to a family emergency, so no I haven't started packing. I think by time this weekend comes I will be in go mood. We're not moving in until the 30th so I have a tad more bit of time to procrastinate.
