Week 6

Week 6

Since we have finished the 3rd floor bathroom, the 3rd floor is now pretty much in our contractor’s hands. This means we can focus on other areas of the house much earlier than expected. We started with the 2nd floor where there was some water damage. It turns out there was much more damage than we thought… so now we get to replace a large chunk of our exterior wall. You can even see our ugly blue siding from the inside now! On the bright side, we are getting French doors to replace the exterior door that goes out to the deck on the second floor. This will look so much better than having a steel exterior door in master closet/bathroom area.

Being that it has been so nice outside that the snow could finally melt, I have been noticing just how much work we have outside. I started by removing the rotting wood fence and I think it looks much better now. It also appears that we will be getting new siding much earlier than anticipated. Now we just have to pick a color and soon our house will be pretty on the outside!
In other news, we FINALLY got a dumpster! Our garage and most of the house are now clear of debris. Only one problem – it’s full already and we need another one!
