kitchen remodel 30
Sep. 22nd, 2021 10:46 pmThe flooring guys came back in the morning. They rearranged some pieces of the quarter-round molding, and put in the rest. It seems fine now. It's strange what you don't realize is wrong until something changes. I pointed out a piece that had a big gap between the molding and the shoe molding. He showed me that the shoe molding was sticking out in the corner, so that's as good as it gets. Apparently it had been like that all along? There was another piece that was broken, I thought it came from elsewhere, and Cindy was sure it was never broken. But the piece couldn't have come from elsewhere because it's the only one that's that long. And the break isn't new. The guy said all the pieces were numbered, and I saw numbers on some of them. (No idea why his helper couldn't follow the numbers, though.)
He reglued a couple of pieces of the vinyl strips, and put some filler in some of the larger gaps. So I guess we're good.
I took the afternoon off work to get some things done. Did some gardening. Didn't really start on the kitchen stuff until almost supper time.
Installed the new stove. It seems nice, so far. Except it doesn't show the time when the oven is on - just the temperature. Strange. Cindy baked supper in it. The old stove was removed four days ago.
The countertop people had installed the sink, since it's an undermount, attached to the stone countertops. I installed the faucet and soap dispenser, and then the drain plumbing. We have water in the kitchen again, since it was all uninstalled two nights ago. The faucet is really nice. It's a solid build and shiny chrome.
The kitchen table and two of the chairs had been in the family room, so I put them back where they belong. Tomorrow the rest of the cabinets go in (sans doors). It's getting there!
