September has also been a very good month.
September is now over.
September saw many advances at the house with the renovations.
September was largely a month of finishing the skeleton of this reno in preparation to start putting skin on!
In one month we will be back in our house. October will be the month we finish; the month we see the fruit of many peoples' hard work come to a celebratory end. And it will be another busy month to say the least!
But for today, there's a few things that happened at the house that are quite exciting...
HVAC completed the installation. Now they need the dust to settle before balancing the system...they want the paint finished and the house nice and clean before sucking all of that into the system! They did fire it up for a minute or two just to feel the air at the registers...it was amazing!
I picked up our sub flooring for the vinyl sheets to go on. We will have vinyl flooring in the Kitchen, Mudroom, Bathroom and Laundry Closet.
The Painters got a few coats on around the house. Here's the kitchen with one coat of the "Brown Bag" on it.
We had some incredible customer service from the local Dulux paint store in Duncan as they were able to create a custom stain colour in an attempt to match our existing walls. Below are a few pics showing the wood that we planed and sanded before applying the new stain. Tomorrow I'll be applying the first layer of Satin clear coat! This wood is simply beautiful and I'm so glad we were able to re-purpose it in the same house it came out of (even though it was hidden behind the drywall, painted and stained and many were full of nail holes). Needless to say, we love the wood look and I think the final product will be warm and beautiful.
