A note from Jill

Matt:

I stopped by this morning to speak with the electrician and get things in order with him—all seems to be going just fine. The electrician is scheduled to be back on Tuesday to finish all of the rough work. The old Romex will be removed, to the extent that it can, and be replaced with all new wiring. It will be much safer.

The cutout that Greg and Pat made in the wall going to the dining room looks great; it really opens up the space! Also, the complete removal of the support header leading to the dinette area also makes the space seem so much bigger. The header was replaced with the doubled up joists you see when you look up at the ceiling.

Looking at the plumbing and electrical contact I see that a 25% payment on the $8000.00 contracted amount is due on Tuesday (upon completion of rough pluming and rough electrical). Would you want to stop by and drop off a check? The amount due is $2000.00

Walls cannot be closed up until the electrical and plumbing inspections have taken place. The plumbing inspection is scheduled for Tuesday, September 4th. The plumbing inspection is tentatively set up for Wednesday

Our carpenters will be back on Wednesday to complete the doorway framing and complete any other items prior to the arrival of the drywallers

Ray will also meeting with the drywall company, at your house, on Wednesday. The next phase of the project is drywall installation, priming and painting. You should go out this weekend and look at paint colors for the kitchen and dinette area. We will need the paint after next week. Let me know if you would like assistance with your final paint color choice.

Have a great weekend!

Best Regards,
Jill Doss
