We have drywall hung (physically on the walls) in the basement, 1st floor, and part of the 2nd floor (the area where we're not "living"). Drywall is actually FINISHED (taped, mudded, sanded) in the basement and we're in the process now of priming and painting. We hope to finish that by Sunday or Monday.
Once painting downstairs is complete, we can install the laminate flooring that we purchased from Costco. Once that is finished, we'll make that bedroom our bedroom and seal off the inside access to it so that workers do not go in and out.
First floor drywall finishing begins tomorrow (Friday) and continues throughout the weekend. Once done there, the finisher moves upstairs. We can then start priming and painting the first floor as well, although we'll hold off on the 1st floor flooring until no more workers will be going in and out.
Meanwhile, the exterior trim is finished and the siding install has begun as well.
Today we got a look at the first of the 2nd floor "shingles". Sorry, not the best picture but if you look closely you can see the look of the shingles on the 2nd floor..
This is not the final color of the siding, although I do very much like this color. This is just what it looks like in its primed/unfinished state. It still needs to be painted. i am hoping for a color similar to this. Kim wants a dark blue. We'll see how that all pans out!
