Rental Renovation Continues 4

Another week goes by with work at the rental.
The plumber (Lyle) hooked up the kitchen faucets, sink and drain. (Not pictured, but the bathroom was hooked up as well. Plus, Lois' garbage disposal let go, so her under the sink got new pipes as well from this same plumber! You know how some people just give him a call and he shows up to do the work!) Beautiful! I love how this turned out! The Tile Guy (Lyle) poses with the counter tops complete!
The Sheet Rocker dude (Lyle) closed in the niche, formerly the wall furnace.
His trusty helper was sleeping on the job !
Then the Plaster came to tape and texture the wall to match existing bumps and lumps.

Cory, that was your nursery! Gone now...
Then the Painter arrives (Lyle) to complete 2 bedrooms and the living room walls and ceilings in all 3 rooms!
So today, the Demo Lady (Marlene) rips up the carpet, vinyl, and floor squares in the dining room and kitchen.
Again, demo done so the Flooring Guy (Lyle) can start with a clear palate! (See...no toilet in the dining room!)

Painting in the kitchen has begun, but ran out of paint. Painting the wall paper is turning out to be very nice!
Oh yes, after each ceiling was painted, the Electrician (Lyle) hung a ceiling fan in all 3 rooms! This one is the living room.
This is the front bedroom. I will not bore you with the back bedroom picture! Well, there you have another week of hard work at This Old House in Hanford. Hope you enjoyed another tour!

Does this mean all we have to do is give Lyle a call and he'll show up and help us replace our shower?

I think the shower is doable but the milage charges would be a B.... L
