After 4 long years I can say the house is finally done!!! Didn’t think this day would ever come. It’s very bitter sweet for me.

Added wood trim in the dining room using old flooring we found in the barn. Thanks Liz and Duane for all your help with it. Love how the Dinning room looks. Also got the closet doors finished and installed thanks to Duane, he did a great job! Repurposed an old cabinet, looks beautiful in the dining room.

Some after photos of the floor grouted. Our Grandson helped me nail the base shoe back on. Also worked on touching up the paint on the stairs. Ended the day with a beautiful sunset.

Update on our moisture issues. It’s been very frustrating, The drainage system we had installed hasn’t seemed to do anything. We were still getting signs of moisture in the walls coming thru the plaster.
So, We decided to remove the plaster on the lower half of the wall. Gonna leave the brick exposed on the lower half and trim it with reclaimed wood. Allow the brick to breathe. Also going to put tile on the floor. More to come……

We were originally told it would be 4-6 weeks before they could come and install a drainage system. They then called and said they could come on Thursday the 9th. On Tuesday this week they called and said they could come that day. It was finished yesterday. I thought they would be cutting thru my tile in front of the fireplace. To my surprise, they went around it 😁 now I just need to replace the outside edge. Thank you everyone for your prayers and support.

Have been having issues with moisture in the walls in the dining room. It basically ruined the lower part of the plaster that was put on. The solution we found involves taking up the flooring, cutting the concrete and putting in a drainage system and sump pump.

Today we started prepping for the drainage system. It was disheartening taking apart our hard work. Sometimes it’s one step forward and 5 steps backward with this house.

Renovation or restoration of a home is not easy. This whole project has been hard and sometimes a struggle but I know God has helped us every step of the way. Would appreciate your prayers as we continue to work on finishing our home.
