Week 4 - Drywall walk-through

Week 4 - Drywall walk-through

Hard to believe, but we had our drywall walk-through!  This is a very important meeting, as it's your one and only chance to add a can light, light switch, cable line, phone line, fan pre-wire, etc., before the drywall goes up!  Our PM was so great in making sure every little thing was perfect.  Everything was done correctly -- we had our extra large master bath shower and linen closet instead of a soaking tub (best decision ever by the way), Jill & Jack sink, light switches right where we wanted them, and rubbed-bronze finishes in the bathrooms.

What I was most impressed with was their efforts in getting our pendant lighting as perfect as possible.  This was about $800 to add in to our kitchen, and because of the placement of the canned lighting, our PM wasn't sure if the pendant lights would align where we wanted them to be over the island.  Additionally, he wasn't sure if we'd want the 2 canned lights that we'd have had we not gotten the pendant lighting, as it might be too much light.



So, they mapped out the exact placement and size of island, then used a laser to align to the ceiling area for the electrician to make the outlets RIGHT where we wanted them! We decided not to add on the 2 canned lights as it seemed it'd be too much light when the lights are on!



A couple days later, we went back to see the dry-wall put up and it really is starting to look like a home!
