Here are some progress shots from last week to show you how the process happened!
The electrician has been working to install the light fixtures and outlets so that it's easier for everyone to work.
The pendant lights are up in the half bathroom (the vessel sink vanity will be centered below them).
Installing the floor tile looks like a slow tedious process! Glad we aren't doing it ourselves. Many cuts to the big 20" tiles to make it around cabinets and through door jams. Almost finished the master bathroom and master closet today. He is preparing the laundry room with the Schluter-DITRA (orange plastic mat) and skim coat on top.
Here's what it looked like the day before...
The bathroom floor tile is all laid out and ready for grout.
The seams in shower are all waterproofed and ready for granite/tile. The pink triangular thing in the corner will be a granite seat...even though it will be way too cold to ever sit on!
The closet bypass doors and closet pocket doors are being installed and the door trim is going up.
The framers continue to work on the front entrance stairs. We picked out the simple black balusters...there was a big debate between square and round, but round are much easier to install! There's a funny optical illusion when you try to look if they are installed straight or not.
Looked like they had it all installed tonight!
The hardwood is all upstairs now. The heat is turned up to help the wood acclimate to our dry climate. We will begin preparing for the install this weekend.

Your stonework for the fireplace looks awesome -walls, hearth and mantle all complement each other well. It is the eye catcher for the great room. Beautiful! The railings for your steps finish them nicely -a very welcoming front entrance. Adding the wooden door trims and putting in lights will warm things up even more -looking very cozy. All looks great! We liked your sunset on Mt Elden photo.
