The kitchen, bathroom and laundry room floors are in now. Dean is doing the floors and the tile work.
35156 35157
This is the cork floor in the kitchen. Looks pretty good with the hickory cabinets and hickory floor, I think.:)
35158
This is the main bath flooring. Both baths have the same flooring.
Dean got the entry tile done today as well as the vinyl in the laundry room. He also got started on the tile around the whirlpool tub. He won't be finished with the grout work until next Monday though.
I started work on the deck today. I couldn't find my level so I was winging it for the most part. It may be off a wee bit. More material has been ordered and I will hopefully find the level. ;) :D

Well, actually I had to rig this up so we can get in the house while Dean does the entry tile. The deck might be started in the next few days, but for now this will have to do.
The Rocket will be here tomorrow to pour the sidewalk. Had a bit of change in plans there. I was going to have no steps to get into the house, but that got shot down. Found out that code says you can't have a sidewalk graded at more than 1' drop for 8' in length. Couldn't do it and have the sidewalk end on the property because of the height of the front door. The drop to the driveway from the front door is almost 6' with only 40' to the driveway. So we'll have two steps out of the house and then a sidewalk. I am having them pour a 5' wide walkway though.
More to come in the next few days.
