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.

Basement Bathroom Progress

Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area. The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped. This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.

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.
