Tradesmen Coming out of the Woodwork
After a year of complaining about things not getting done, guess what. Suddenly this morning the doorbell has been ringing non stop. And I only expected one person to show up today. So far, we have had the island fixed (third time) the bathtub faucets tightened (you could spin them around), caulking topped up where it had been missing. How can people miss stuff like this?? Like using caulking when they should have use grout??
And then there were all the people who came to look and say, oh yes, that needs to be fixed. Man, where have I heard that before? Lets just hope that someone comes back to do it. If all of things get fixed, I just might start liking this house! But there are still 9 pages of work to be done, so it’s still the early days. The big stuff they haven’t even tackled yet. Did I mention that they graded out backyard so that they wouldn’t have to give us a deck?? They hoped that we wouldn’t notice. Luckily our home inspector certainly did. So, fun times ahead. !
