the padded room...

we have to have this inspected before we can install the drywall...now i know why some people do work without permits, it is such a hassle!

WARNING, THE FOLLOWING IS A RANT:

another hassle is waiting for sub-contractors to show up! we basically give a sub 1-2 times to "strike out", then we call someone else and start again. i dont know how many plumbers we have called, but they just dont show up (without even a phone call). there are plumbers working on the house next door who said that they would stop by at the end of the day on monday...never showed, then they were supposed to show up at the end of the day on tuesday, well guess what, nope! the excavator that we used for the water main was not the original guy that we called-cause the original guy never showed up; if we ever get a plumber, it will be the 3rd or 4th guy we call; the gas pipe fitter never called us back...it is a good thing that we are doing most of the work, because if we had to depend on contractors, i am afraid that this project would never get done!

on the brighter side, our heating subcontractor has been great. he did show up, gave us a good price, and is going to fit us into his busy schedule because he understands that our time is money. let's keep our fingers crossed, he is supposed to show up tomorrow!

END OF RANT!
