New pile of rubble

The rockers finished on Friday and left this huge pile of rubble not only in the kitchen but in every room.  So I guess the extractors will be back again on Tuesday.

Tuesday the contractor has to get a nailing inspection (really it's a screwing inspection but I guess they weren't happy with the sound of that).  Seems a little inane, they come to inspect to make sure it has been installed correctly and measure how close the screws are together.  They can't take the next step until the inspection is complete.

When  went to inspect yesterday, I realize that they did not do the door jambs correctly.  I will have to meet with the contractor on Tuesday to figure out how to get this done correctly.  These jambs are turning out to be a head ache.  But I must say the directions leave a lot to be desired.  I think I will draw these people some details so they can inform their next clients what actually needs to be done.  It could have been quite straight forward.

The taping and mud will take a few weeks and then they can level the floors with the concrete.

Stay tuned and watch the transformation.  If you want a hint of it's future look at my Pinterest posts.  http://www.pinterest.com/jdzinesf/hyde-street-penthouse/
