WIP - Ridge Meadows Reno Part 7

We refer to them as the "short strokes"; the part of the project that that often feels like it takes the longest.  Cabinets installation is complete, countertops are installed, the flooring and painting is done.  The backsplash tiles are being installed and then the appliances will be hooked up. A quick sweep up with a broom and is sounds like we should be able to plan the house-warming party, right?

Well for many home owners, these last few items can feel like they take forever.  After weeks of having contractors in their house every day, they are eager to   put their kitchen back together and get their lives back to normal.  Unfortunately the smaller jobs that need completing don`t often take that long, and as a result get spread out over the trades peoples`schedules.  With Al`s help we've been able to keep things moving.  At this stage, sooner is always better than later.

These are the new Caesarstone countertops ... one of their new recycled collection in a colour called Chocolate Truffle.  You can also see the backsplash tile being installed, and the beautiful new Fluid sink.

Speaking of appliances ...

The microwave and dishwasher have already been put in place and hooked up.  The refrigerator just needs the plumber to connect the water line, and the range ... well the range needs about 4 strong backs to carefully put it into place.  This thing is HEAVY, so even though we had the gas fitter in to hook it up, he came alone.  He`ll be back tomorrow and we`ll bring more strong backs.
