Monday, 7/12
Eric and his team removed the living room carpet and installed a new lock on the breezeway door.
Stains on the floor were unacceptable and we agreed that the living room and hall needed to be sanded and restained.
Wednesday he called and wanted me to view the floor. Because he was unable to get the correct grade of sanding paper, the floors must be resanded and stained. If he was to put the shiny coat on top, it would only highlight the unsmooth surface. The stains were less of a problem than the unsmooth surface.
Wednesday he redid the work, and it looks like he will be finishing up with the upstairs by Thursday morning.
Ernest started work on the garage door, shutters, and new lock on the garage/breezeway door 930am, Wednesday morning. I had picked up more boxes at County Market, talked with both crews, and went for the first run from the house on Westview. After the run I drove to Walmart and got a new lock for the garage breezeway door. Ernest will install it for five bucks. Then I went to FitClub for a workout and returned to check on the progress. Eric was working on the basement and his helper was redoing the sanding. It looked much better and they'll go ahead with the final treatment tomorrow morning.
Ernest said he would need until early this evening to complete the job. He called at 645pm and said that he would need more time for the paint on the garage door to soak in and he messed up one of the new black shutters. He failed to measure, and he will replace them. He's coming back on Saturday at 11am to finish the job.
