Protection Primer

Just went under contract, won't close till October 15th, but I needed to take care of some weather exposure before then. Here is a shot of the paint which has worn off of the main beams on the back of the house.

I put some color matching primer on them. Once we close (or get close to closing) I'll start doing some proper painting. The white wash on the undersides will be white and the beam will be navy blue. But at least for now the wood is protected. Here is an after shot.

The color of the house really is bad, it's a putty color, with white wash under the eaves in the back, but all putty in the front. Definitely needs some sprucing up.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower. 1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan. Tested and approved by the inspector. Next is upper pan and then tile.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it. This will look good once the flooring is installed.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath. Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down. Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad. Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat. Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish. Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.
