The Flooring is In
The new bamboo flooring was installed this week in the whole downstairs of the house except for the old living room. They also installed the dishwasher and refrigerator. They installed most of the lighting in the kitchen and eating area - some of our lights are still on order and some we have yet to order. They also installed a custom made retaining wall around the double windows in the back of the basement.
Next week the stove will be installed and our kitchen will be fully operational again. They will be working on the molding around the edges of the floor. Our new table and chairs are also meant to be delivered late next week.

The new floors (and the new refrigerator). They installed a paper path on the main walkway to prevent the constant foot traffic from our dirt backyard from damaging the new floors.

The Counters are Installed
Hello Vandy Construction Blog faithful. Another week has passed and we are hopefully closer to getting a working kitchen again. Things are starting to take shape and you can now finally get a good feel for how everything looks.
The counters were delivered and installed this week and the kitchen is really starting to come together. They also painted the kitchen, the fireplace room, and the new room. The siding is nearly complete. They ran out of siding and needed to order more (that takes about a week to come in) so all but one side of the house is complete. The shutters are not on the house yet, but the new siding looks very good.
Next week they plan to install the new flooring in the kitchen, fireplace room, and the new room. They also plan to install the lighting fixtures (if Leslie and I can find ones we like). Enjoy the pictures!

You can see the new sink and faucet on the left side and the new bar area on the right side of the picture below.
The desk area
This is the living room wall - you can see our new microwave as well
The new siding on the house
A picture while they were putting it up
The new room is a blue color (I have no idea what the official name of the color is)
The new color of the fireplace room and kitchen. I think its meant to be tan in color, but it looks greenish to me. I think this color is called canvas sneaker (whatever that means).

Basement Is Painted
This week the basement was painted, the molding on the kitchen cabinets was completed, the siding was removed from the house, they started putting on the new siding, and they finished the fireplace surround.
The counter top people came this week to and measured for the counter. They will deliver and install the counter next week. The flooring for the kitchen and new room was also ordered and will be delivered next week.
The new lime green basement.
The newly painted stairway to the basement. A new step was installed at the bottom of the stairs and the half wall on the side of the stairs was cut back to make a landing at the bottom of the basement stairs.
The siding was removed on most of the house
They started to put the new siding on the back of the house. This work will continue next week.
More pictures of the new siding
The molding was installed above the new cabinets and the walls in the kitchen and new room were primed for painting
They also painted the sliding doors between the kitchen and the living room.
The fireplace surround was also completed this past week.
