D in this case is 'drywall'.
This is where we were on Monday....
Steve and Tim of Commonwealth installed the batting in the roof of the new space and the outer walls.
The blue wires are for my speaker system that I am so jazzed about. The batting really changed the acoustics of this level. It was quieter, with much less outside noise coming in.
Our new back door arrived on Monday.
This is the new dining room wall. Steve and Tim installed that pink foamcore insulation between the shirring strips. This will hopefully save us $$$ in heating and air bills. The A/C guys came on Monday and removed the old duct work, and installed new ducts in the new space. They'll be back after the drywall guys are finished. And yes, Mom, they capped everything off so that drywall schmutz won't get into the new ducts. ;-)
The Drywall guys got there on Tuesday morning at about 8:30am. It was Mike, the drywall guy, and three helpers. They finished hanging everything in one day. The results are below...follow me please,

Are you ready, because it's really unbelievable....
Still with me?
Your just not going to believe what they did....
What about now?? Still there??
Ok, I'll quit toying with your expectations. Below is the drywalled kitchen cove. Steve said that they used a thinner flexible wallboard for the curved areas. Who knew?
Here's Tim's awesome display cases. M and I are going to look for lighting options for these this weekend.
Here's our new side door, fully installed. That's speaker wire hanging down. We both love that door, it's like another 'window wall'.
This is looking from the edge of the new room, into the kitchen and passageway. BTW, that new powder room is going to be small. We're a little worried that the choices we made for the fixtures will be to big for the room. C'est la Vie.
The framed in window/fireplace wall.
M and I both had the same reaction to that skwiggle of wiring hanging from the ceiling in the dining room. "WTFrack, is THAT?" There's no fixture there, and its on the side of the dining room near the entrance to the kitchen. Steve said he'd review the plans and see what its for. Perhaps we could treat it like a mobile and hang interesting objet d'arte from it. We'd have to remember to tell guests, "MIND THE ART!!!" S'all I got, bye y'all. CC

Wow! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could use all those wires to swing around the place like Tarzan?
Wow, the drywall makes SUCH a visual difference. So exciting!
ReplyDeleteIt truly does. He started his finishing work yesterday, and they expect it to last until next Tuesday. I think the cabinets will go in next week!!!
