finally some "Stuff" is DONE

So finally we can say one sub-trade is completely done. Yippee we thought that would never happen. Thursday we came home and the tile backsplash for the bathroom was complete. That was the final piece of tile work to be done. They had come earlier in the week and completed the tile behind the stove.
Hey the stove is in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So is the fridge and it is even panelled

Friday morning the tile guys came back and sealed the tile and grout in the kitchen and grouted the tile backsplash in the bathroom and with that, their work here is done. The only outstanding item is the sealing of the grout in the steam shower and they don't do that it is a "specialist" that comes in. Apparently it is a particular type of grout sealer that is required because of the steam. The last thing we want is to worry about mold so we are content to wait. That should be next week (fingers crossed). The good news is that one sub-trade is done and we are one step closer to completion.


The plumber is also done (we think). The shower head is installed, the dishwasher is hooked up (can't use it yet as there is no panel on the front so no way of opening the drawers), and the doodads for the steam shower are installed



Keith, the cabinet installer was also here Thursday and now most of the doors and drawer fronts are on. A few still outstanding but closer than we were for sure.

We really are ready now to have our house back.
