We managed to get our electrician out on Thursday and Friday to start work on our new electric service. When we moved in, the house had 100 amp service and a completely full panel. Actually worse than full, as there were two double-tapped breakers in the panel. So getting the electric service was on the short list of things that needed to be done and we've managed to get a start on that. The electrician managed to get the new panel installed and all of the circuits switched over to the new panel as well as added a few new circuits for some of the more aggregious add-on circuits.
He'll be returning Monday or tuesday to do some work in the laundry room (adjacent to the currently being remodeled bathroom) to move a switch and add some new outlets. We want to get that work done before I get to work on fixing up the walls in there so we can paint. The walls in that room are in pretty rough shape, so there's a fair amount of work ahead of me there. On the bathroom, I managed to get decorative tile around the shower installed, grouted, sealed and caulked.
More exciting than that, I started working on my first hook up for low voltage wiring!! Skawood would be so proud. I ended up running out of time and didn't get do to much but I managed to get the hole in the right place for the most important rooms (living room and sewing room/wireless room). It was mildly interesting as walls don't ever match up from floor to floor in this house, so there was a lot more thinking than drilling!
Oh yeah, and we have a very lazy puppy:
So lazy.
