How long must I wait for the plumber?
I visited my carriage-house-in-progress after work yesterday. The process has been delayed about a week already by a slow-moving plumber. The piping was supposed to be finished last week. Now, my uncle is hoping the guy will get his ass crack in gear so that they can do some real work on the weekend.
I did get to see what had been done so far, which was the major restructuring of the rooms and most of the electricity. The outlets are plentiful, which will be convenient, but my closet seems to be in my bathroom, which I hope shall cause no aromatic difficulties.
I drew this at work on MSPaint, so it's not really to scale or anything. The long red bit on the right is my main living area. My front door is the black dot at the bottom of it. The odd green shape at the top is my kitchen cabinets, sink, range, etc. So this long space is going to have a TV and couch set up by the front door, and a dining room table and things near the kitchen end. Off of the kitchen, through the next black dot of a door is my orange-colored bedroom. It also has a door to my "backyard," which may actually include a small deck around the trees that are already in my aunt and uncle's backyard. Moving left through another black dot is my bathroom. The dark brown bit there is my closet. Again, this isn't to any type of scale, but it should give you an idea of how the layout looks.
The move-in date is Sept 1, but we're not sure if that's going to happen. The plumber is dragging his feet and nothing else can be finished until he is. But once he is, the drywalling, painting and tile processes won't be too much of a problem. The biggest obstacle will be the installation of various things: sinks, shower, toilet, refrigerator, cupboards, etc.
But know this: the place shall surely rock.
