Renovation Posted Notices – the Good and the Ugly

Just before we departed for a Memorial Day weekend get away, we came home to this notice on our front door.

a Stop Work Order

Yes, it is a stop work order. Interestingly, it is posted on our front door, and all the workers enter on the side of the property without any opportunity to see the front door.  Perhaps that is why the trades are still working.

We send a picture of it to our contractor.  Gage replies, “I will take care of it.”  A few hours later, we ask for an update.  Gage replies, “I will take care of it.”  We depart for our Memorial Day get away.  During our trip, we ask Gage to have the notice removed as soon as possible.  We are a bit embarrassed to have it there. When we return in a few days, it is removed.  To this day, that’s all we know about it.

Then there are the happy notices, the ones we were excited to receive.  Last week, our electrical rough in passed inspection.

Today, the plumbing rough in passed inspection.

Those things mean we can proceed. The plumbing work can continue; the new walls can soon be built.

  1. Wow, I love hearing how things are going and love the pictures. I am looking forward to the next chapter. I wish I had seen it before the re model for a reference. But now maybe we will have a invite to the new first floor. Love you both so and miss you 😘 🏠 Da’ce
