The final inspection failed as we thought, but at least we only failed on known items; the jacuzzi access cover, the canned light trim in the bedroom, the anti siphon set screw on the hose bibs, and the shower enclosure. I took last week off and got the bedroom painting completed so now all the vents, lights and covers are up. Mike stopped by last Wednesday with the jacuzzi access cover and I just mounted it with adhesive silicone. I also go the shower tiles pretty much completed except for the bottom row. It has to be done in multiple stages the way I am doing it, so as to make it as waterproof as possible. Half of the shower floor got grouted last night and I will finish it off tonight. That leaves the bottom row of granite tiles and the threshold. and then finally we can have the shower doors accurately measured. That is gonna cost over $1500. Ouch...
In the past two week since I have last entered more information into this blog, I have also done a lot of cleanup outside and so has Megan, doing a little bit of yard work. I built up the dirt area at the bottom of the back steps, pretty much finished the stair tiles leading into the living room, bought and installed most of the closet cabinetry after painting the closet a bright white, mounted the vanity lights, the medicine cabinets, finished the jacuzzi granite tiling, tiled most of the desk bullnose, the bedroom pony wall moulding, spackeled and sanded half or so of the crown moulding, and of course took the day off to eat my share of the decapitated and disemboweled bird.
I hope to get crackin on the hardwood floor in about two weeks, we shall see. The only thing holding me up is the shower, so I can get the glass on order, and of course getting the bedroom doors completed as they need additional coats of polyurethane.
