Construction Video Walkthrough
Here’s a walk-through while they were finishing up drywall.
I’m not the best narrator, but you get the idea of what it’ll look like when it’s all done.
Custom Trim is here.
We wanted a base-molding that nobody else would be able to go out and buy. Something that was strong and sharp. Jeff Bogart came up with a few ideas, but this one seemed to be the winner.
We handed the prints over to the GC and he got to work.
Turned out exactly how we’d planned, but we’ll be making a few small changes after we get everything up and installed. We’ll round the outer edge slightly so it’s not TOO sharp.
Let there be (some) light!
After a long-hard battle over the proper way to ground a transformer, we now have lights starting to come on! I’m pretty happy with the fixtures we picked out. They were a little on the ‘industrial’ side, but overall, that’ll work out just fine.
The issue we’re going to run into is the location of the HVAC duct-work. We’ve had to re-locate them to the closet, so we’re loosing some closet-space, but gaining more storage above the bathrooms. Maybe we can get one of those cool ladders like they have in the library!
Drywall is going up!
As we inch one step closer to our big move, we hit another milestone today. Drywall!
The gang from Precision Drywall was there at 7:30 this morning to start hanging sheet-rock. By the end of the day, they’d completed about 60% of the office, and will be back bright and early tomorrow morning to finish up.
It’s starting to close in, and open up at the same time.
Insulation is up…and the space starts taking shape.
As the electricians finish up their end of things, we had insulation show up all of the sudden!
The front door was cut-out so we have a new way to come in! (Much to Dwayne’s chagrin.)
