The wall behind the toilet was re-mudded a bit ago, so I sanded, primed, and painted it.
The thermostat in the mudroom was made for 240VAC, but the heater will run off of 120VAC (I have yet to order one), so the red wire denoting 240 volts must be marked with white tape. I stuck a label on it just to make sure (120VAC TO MUDROOM HEATER).
Is anyone clicking on the “Read more” link?
Before Dave or Floyd got here, I mudded more nicks in the bathroom ceiling. Problem areas are marked with green masking tape.
The exterior receptacle (“outside plug”) needs a cover. Yes, I know, exterior outlets need the full-on exterior outlet assembly. However, this is grandfathered in.
Time to move stuff out of bedrooms 1 and 2 and prime them. The rooms have been storage spaces since work began.
The mudroom looks like it’s ready for another skim coat.
BR1 and BR2 were primed and ready for paint.
The problem kitchen wall got another round of drywall mud. When first mudding, it’s impossible to get all the holes, scratches, and nicks. After a coat of primer, they become obvious. The primer roller rolls across the wall, pulling loose drywall dust out the crevices, showing imperfections. It might be better to vacuum, or at least sweep, the wall before priming.
The mudroom was primed.
