We’ve Got The Power!
Posted by JennyIt’s amazing what a difference framed in walls and some light bulbs make!
Nicholas Electric finished the rough in last week, a day ahead of schedule, and we have switches with working overhead lights for the first time in the house! We can see the basement.
Having outlets, switches, and light really makes the place look like it’s coming together. We can see the final steps ... heat, insulation, drywall. When we had the latest materials delivered from Lowe’s the delivery guy took a tour of the house and left us with some reassuring thoughts. He did the same thing to his place, but one room at a time while he lived in it. In the end, he said, it’s worth all of the hard work.
Around the same time that the electric was being isntalled, Dun-Rite came in and repaired and replaced the windows. The new subfloors are mostly done. Maybe some day we will actually have a livable house.
