Renovations #4

We are getting closer to the completion of the renovations of the house where Mike, Samantha and the kids live next to PIU. Joyce has been using most of her free time to get the place finished in time for them to move back in during the next weekend. The workers have been doing the tiling, plumbing, wiring etc. We have been very pleased with the quality of the work and are thankful that Mike, Sam and family are going to move back into a much more livable space. When they finish I will make an “all done” post.

Here is the sink for the new bathroom. I think Joyce has really enjoyed the opportunity to spend so much time in hardware and home improvement stores this past month.

One of the last big jobs was the tiling of the new bathroom.

We had to get the septic tank pumped so that the new plumbing could be connected to it. We were just happy that there were not any major issues to be taken care of with that. Joyce took some pictures of the inside of the septic tank but I will spare you from seeing them.

The pass-through window and the doorway between the kitchen and dining area are completed.

Yesterday the workers were there installing the faucets and bath and shower head.

 

They also installed the water heater. We wanted to get a new more efficient water heater but for now we had to go with just having the old one reinstalled.

This is the outside entrance to the bathroom. The sidewalk is almost completed.

 

The bathtub now has all the faucets and shower head all installed.

All this stuff that was in boxes stored in the living room a couple days ago is now installed and ready to be used. We are close to being done!
