Progression

The addition seems to be progressing quite well. Unfortunately the workers were on a roll with the framing, but lumber that was suppose to be delivered this AM did not arrive until the afternoon. Since they cannot stand around and do nothing, they started on the master bedroom removing whatever they could get their hands on. The sliding glass door is ready to be removed and the doors and hardware are removed from both the closets. The carpet has been rolled up (we need to save a portion). The plan is for the inspector to do a PM inspection and have the roofers roof on Thursday.

I think I have picked out the flooring for my sewing room. It is a really pretty laminate by Dupont. It has the backing attached and the color and pattern should not show scratches or dirt. We have come across a little problem with the carpet. We cannot match the carpet that we have in the house. With the extension of the hallway, we really need to have the carpet match. We can get new and different carpet for the extension, but the installers will not install the old carpet from the master bedroom into the hallway. No problem with getting new carpet for the addition, but we have to find someone who will cut a piece from the master bedroom carpet and install it. We do not know how to install carpet, so I will be searching for a “repair” service to see if they will lay the carpet in the hallway. I am sure it will all work out in the end – the closer we come to completion the more timing becomes essential.
