Here are the last pictures I have of the progress with the shop/apartment. It's nice that it's all inside work now, we have had tons of rain the last part of our summer?! We hope to be in sometime next month.
 |
| Danny and Sam gearing up to spray the foam insulation into the ceiling and walls. The insulation is a two part mix, and is very sticky and smelly. |
 |
| Love the head gear Sam! This looks like a really good time. Actually Sam has become the expert with the ins and outs of the foam machine..Any problems---- Call Sam! |
 |
| I think their favorite was doing the ceiling/roof. |
 |
| One of the finished walls. You can see the ceiling is sheet rocked, thats because they had to sheetrock the ceiling first, then spray foam on top of the sheetrock, leaving an air space between that and the metal roof to create a "cold roof". |
 |
| Dallas, with the help? of Dave Rue setting up the sheet rock jack to finish sheet-rocking the ceiling so they could finish the insulation. |
 |
| Alas, the insulation, sheet rock, mud and taping, and most of the texture up the down staircase is done, and all the tile is set in the main floor kitchen and in both full baths upstairs including granite master countertop, they are operational now in apartado A. |
 |
| At the top of the stairs in the landing/sitting room. Note the right upper part of the pic. above the stairs. When finished this will be a small loft, one that the grandkiddies will love to flee to. Im really excited about this, Just trying to decide how to finish the enclosure. I have thought about using dowels to the ceiling, (like a jail house!!) Any suggestions? At the back is the laundry room, which is tiled. All the "A" apartment is now textured, ready to paint. The sealer coat has already been applied in the masterbath/closet and bedroom. Apartment "B" is not far behind, with the upstairs mostly textured. The downstairs needs one more coat of mud and it will be ready to texture and paint as well. |
 |
| Looking down the stairs toward the front door. |
 |
| Looking from the front door at the living room. On the left is the dining room, and around the corner is the kitchen.The door opening on the left will be a small bathroom. As you can see, the walls are textured ready for paint, and the hardie-backer board is down, ready to tile. The tile is set out waiting for Keith, the tile master!!! |
 |
| The tile work in the 2nd bedroom upstairs. Turned out very nice. There is tile around the shower as well. |
 |
| The bathroom counter top in Bedroom #2. The tile turned out very nice. Quite unique. Thanks Keith. |
 |
| Bathroom countertop in the master bedroom. Keith said he has never worked with granite before, but he and Kelly did an amazing job with this. I love the high backsplash and front edge. Note the tile along the wall behind the toilet and in the shower. The shower tile goes all the way to the ceiling. LOVE it. |
 |
 |
| Rod finishing the bits and pieces of the hardie backer board, ready for the rest of the living room to be tiled. It has been a LOT of work for everyone, but is all coming together now. Since I took these pictures, a lot more progress has been made. I am currently in So. Jordan, Ut with my youngest daughter, Cassie, who just had a baby last Thursday. When I get back I will take pictures of the latest progress and post an update. It won't be long now until we will be moving in!! |
