Remodel - An aside

This is what the floor looks like in most of the rest of my unit. There are some sections that are older and more beat up looking but this is in most of the hallway and open space next to this new room. I was assured several times before the project began that this flooring would be found.

Remodel - Day 5

Not feeling too good about this. Yes, it's the same picture as Day 4. I call contractor the next morning to go over the schedule, find out what's going on with the flooring. Still no wood but I get reassurances about the schedule. He's going to bring me some samples of flooring.

Remodel - Day 4

Progress resumed but is very slow. Rest of plastic sheeting is put up over the pink insulation. Big sections of sheetrock are up. Contractor's contractor probably only worked a couple of hours after being on another job all day.

Remodel - Day 3

Yup, that's that the same picture from Day 2. No progress.

The reality or the 2nd scariest thing I've done lately

It started out as a hole the size of a switch plate, then two holes the size of switch plates. Then Fredy, the contractor, came over last week and cut a hole large enough to walk through (with a bit of maneuvering). Here's what's on the other side.

All told the space will end up being 15' by 8' if we include what is now the hallway. It will not have that much usable space because of the pitched roof but I am convinced and he agrees that this can be a 2nd bedroom.

I think a closet can go against this wall with space for hanging stuff to the right and shelves/drawers to the left thus eliminating the need for a dresser. Bed will be up against the opposite wall. I hope to have frosted glass doors that open out into the living space since right now there is no natural light in this space. Eventually (when the inevitable roof repairs are necessary) I will add skylights to this room.
