I have a to-do list of items that need to be completed before they insulate. We worked all day Saturday completing most of two items, but there was just a little bit more to be done on both! So we had to come back Monday evening to continue. I did finish one item (lowering all outlets and wood backing for the living room TV), but there's STILL a little more to do with decking the area above the front garage with plywood!
I would feel so much better if I could go over there and finish one project before I left. Everything always takes 10 times longer than I estimate, and there's always one piece of something that we don't have with us in order to complete the job. Oh well, at least I'm making progress. Most of what's left is running last-minute wires someplace or adding more wood blocking behind where sheetrock or viny trim will be.
Speaking of vinyl trim, my friend was planning to come and start that job today. But at the last minute we thought about how acid-washing the bricks would affect the vinyl. So he's waiting an extra day. Yesterday, the brick layers didn't show up. I don't know why. Hopefully, they will be there today to finish the job and do the acid-washing.
The electrical inspection that was scheduled for today got pushed back to tomorrow as well. So it's doubtful that I'll get that and my framing inspection by Friday. That pushes my insulation back again. The sheetrock for the walls that will be sound-proofed is on-site. We're debating whether to do anything to the bowed studs to straighten them until the framing inspection is complete. I don't want to give anyone reason to give me trouble.
