Saturday, September 16th, 2006Slab Mistake
Saturday, September 16th, 2006One thing they did incorrectly was the side slabs of the shower opening. THey were not supposed to get narrower when they met the wainscot. They were supposed to stick out about 3/4 inch, but now they are even and the edge of the slab looks funny meeting the drywall. It’s not as clean looking as it could be.
Thresholds
Friday, September 15th, 2006They brought the thresholds today too. Bathrooom carrera thresholds and the limestone for the two entry thresholds.
Master Counter Slab Installation
Friday, September 15th, 2006They couldnt do this before because we were missing a cap for the center leg of the leg system. So that took only 5 days to get on site, but then the slab guys couldn’t get to the house until today, 6 weeks later.
By this time, I was just daily to the contractor “Where the @#%#%^ are they?!”
Watching them put this together was very interesting.
