New windows and a sliding glass door went in yesterday and I built a new gate for the driveway, no pics though I was way too busy. I'll get pics of the progress tomorrow.

The house is rad, Alon. Congrats on getting a space.

 

Tile in master bathroom is done, granite is installed (we're not using the backsplash in the pics), ceiling fans are all up, can lights are in the family room (no pics) fences are done/almost done and 99% of the electrical work is done. Starting on the wood floor refinishing tomorrow and tile work in the kitchen starts tomorrow.

Thanks for all the comments so far guys!

 

party party! I see those counter tops covered in nachos and dip and a pyramid of beer cans and/or bottles. Add some more munchies and hard a bottle.....sounds and looks like fun, right?

 

soooo, when are you coming down to help me with this vision of yours?

 

Best bet is after the new year since work wont let me take days off. dangit.

 

I'll come over when he comes down.. New Years '10?

 

Hardwood floors were sanded today and the first of 3 coats of sealer/clear went on. We are keeping the natural color, no stains. Sink got hooked up today and we found out that the drains are all clogged up . Tile backsplash was started and will be finished up tomorrow and the kitchen tile should be started by tomorrow and finished on thursday. Microwave was installed today and the cabinets got one more coat of the stain.

I also used the old counter top to make a workbench in the garage.

And now on to the pics...

 

We have that same granite in my house! Whats it called again?

Looks great so far!

 

Uba tuba

 

Sick dawg. Lookin' good.

 

Yep thats the same stuff we have, its cool to just sit and look at it lol

 

Backsplash is done and getting grout tomorrow. Kitchen floor will be done tomorrow, hardwood is done now. I pulled out a tree in the front of the house and tomorrow and friday will be tying up all the loose ends. I leave for cincinnati tomorrow night and will be back sunday to move in.

 

Damn place is looking nice. i like the seat on the porch

 

Your coming to Cincinnati? I'm calling the media asap.

 

Yup, If you want to come say hi i'll be at the cincitucky airport at 7:45 for about 5 min and we start the drive back. I'll be back in january and I'll stick around for a few days.

 

damn dude you have some serious talent for this stuff i wish i could afford a house and redo it. house looks sweet to bad i live in PA a little far to come for a party lol

 

lookin great so far. why didn't you go with an undermount sink?

the kitchen i'm about to start picked the same granite, lol. very popular i guess.

 

Because my parents were worried that, having room mates, someone might chip the sink and it would be easier to replace if it was over mount. Also saved the fabrication cost of the sink hole and they could get it installed faster if it was overmount. In the end, I just wanted it done and didnt really care whether or not it was over or under, that was one battle that wasnt worth fighting.

 

hahaha, i can only imagine what the hot neighbor's reaction would be if you were chillin on your new front porch seat drinkin a beer & reading a newspaper...hurry up and finish so we can celebrate properly.

 

...plese get AT LEAST a second green plastic chair for out back, lol. that one sitting by itself looks sad, lol.

 

x2 Dammit!

We need more drunken wandering!!!!


Mike, we need to arrange for Alon to hook up with said neighbor.


Alon, when are we going to rewire the garage?

 

For a few days I actually had two toilets on the porch, they are now gone... :-(

I need to get some furniture and we'll party it up, dont worry

There are three other green chairs somewhere, think they might be inside.

We'll rewire the garage as soon as we dig up the back yard. I think we're going to run a gas line to the garage, so when we do that I'll run some conduit down there. I'll let you know.
