The guys have been working on doors floors and trim for the past few days. We purchased 10 antique (some distressing) doors to use for the interior of the new addition. The guys were able to find a couple 3 Hemlock doors that are about 3 inches thick and weigh enough that two guys have to carry them. It will be funny to see the first person who grabs the pocket door and is surprised by how thick and beefy this door is! All of the doors are very unique and have 6 raised panels to match the existing doors in the house. Because of previous renovations over the years we only have 2 original 6 panel doors in our current house. Even so, we wanted to remain true to the original designer who 90 years earlier thought 6 panel doors would be nice. Also, the guys put up the beaded plywood on the car shelter ceiling and started to work on some trim in this area as well. Speaking of trim the guys are doing a beautiful job of matching the original trim around all of the doors and windows in the new addition. The drywall is complete now and we have begun trying to choose colors for the new areas. Finally, the red oak flooring is starting to get installed. It is stunningly beautiful. As of today the entire owners suite area floor is complete and the welcome landing has been started. Vanessa and I took care of a few odds and ends like picking out the top (granite) for our vanity. We stumbled across a great deal at Prestige Marble where you could pick out a left over piece for a greatly reduced price. Next we pick out all of the lighting fixtures and finalize the paint colors. One more thing the HVAC guys installed the line set and condenser out back so our Heating and Air will be complete very soon. I think all they have left to do is run one more supply line to our dining room and install a condensation pump to get the water outside. I also included a photo of the new tankless heater, because I couldn't remember if had posted one. Nice, 4 showers at once, and hot water forever!
