Day 11-12

October 17, 2013 Adrienne Hart2 Comments

Even though a lot gets done every day… sometimes the progress just doesn’t photograph well. Maybe it just looks the same to me because I see it everyday. The living room, dining room and office have now been finished with a wood-look porcelain tile that we installed with random staggered grout joints. They’ll grout in… Continue reading Day 11-12

Day 7- More Installation

October 11, 2013October 10, 2013 Adrienne HartLeave a comment

I usually start to lose interest when the only guys working are the tile guys, because it seems a bit monotonous and endless… this job is no different. Don’t get me wrong- I love to see the progress and am always amazed at how fast everyone works with a looming deadline over their head. But… Continue reading Day 7- More Installation

Day 2 was all about removing a sea of travertine, which is the dustiest and nosiest of demolition projects… so I went at the very end of the day to avoid all of that. You can see the Makita that took care of all of the tile, quietly resting on a ledge in the master bathroom.… Continue reading Day 2- Demolition

Day 1- Demolition

October 2, 2013 Adrienne Hart2 Comments

Stardust showed up at 7am to start removing the cabinets and after three hours, this is what it looked like. Their team of three guys kept chipping away until all of those ugly cabinets came out. The granite backsplash that was there made it virtually impossible to get the upper cabinets out, so they had… Continue reading Day 1- Demolition
