Fixing up the House

I decided to have the floor tile cleaned rather than replaced - after picking out tile. I decided to replace the carpet with carpet rather than laminate flooring - after picking out laminate flooring. Both decisions were made with Maddie in mind. We like to play fetch in the house and this will keep the floors less slippery. Plus getting new floor tile would make me want new countertops and appliances. That would be too much.

I had a guy come out and fix the grout and drywall in the master bath shower that had water damage. He replaced the broken grout and replaced the damaged 'green board' with 'cement board.'

I had a guy come out and do the measurements for the new carpet. It will be installed after the walls are painted and the tile is cleaned.

I had a guy come out and measure and give me an estimate to clean all the floor tile and seal the grout. This will be done after painting and before carpet installation.

I had an electrician come out to consult about moving the cable from the SW to the NE corner of the master bedroom. The actual work is supposed to happen next week.

I have a guy coming out next week to consult about fixing the finish on the tub in the guest bath.

Then I will get another guy - the one who did the master bath shower - to install the new bathtub door. He may also replace some broken floor tiles and refinish the wood edges of the bathroom and kitchen countertops and install a big curtain rod in the living room when everything else is done.

I need to finalize the wall and trim paint colors.
