Paint, Trim & Carpet

Over the past year we've continued to work on finishing the basement to our 2 bedroom, 889 sq. ft. home. It was only last June that my dad was here helping us get started on the mudding and taping.

In the past 12 months we've managed to finish the mudding and sanding, had the ceilings spackled, primed and painted the walls, painted and mounted trim and doors, finished the electrical work and now had the carpet installed.

We're by no means finished yet. There are a few more pieces of trim to mount, some more caulking to do, another coat of paint to put on the trim, all the ledges need to be done and shelves put in the closets. Oh and the bathroom ... let's not even go there! Another project ... another time!!

But after a lot of elbow grease, money and help from wonderful friends, we finally have usuable space to house our guest room, office and rec/play room. What a feeling of accomplishment!!
