Our project started on time and on schedule. When I got home Monday night the guys, Greg and Pat, were just cleaning up. In the driveway was a fifteen yard dumpster, filled to capacity with what used to be our kitchen.
They had almost everything completely out – walls and ceiling down to studs, electrical and plumbing off, soffits gone, appliances either moved (microwave and refrigerator) or tossed (everything else), carpet ripped out.
Today they will remove the floor and the ceiling in the eating area (our first bit of project creep), the insulation and some dead wiring. The electrician and plumber should start tomorrow.
Last night we made hamburgers, figuring that they’d be easy to prepare. I suppose they were easier than paella, but still too much work considering the status of the rest of the house. I believe we’ll stick with sandwiches, cereal and take out for a while.
Greg told us that they are figuring on five weeks for completion. That puts us at October 1st, 2007. Let’s keep our fingers crossed!
