So we’ve got sheetrock now. In a few short days they closed up all of the exposed walls and ceiling, properly mounted the light cans amd receptacles. Texturing the ceiling and walls was done shortly thereafter.
The kitchen feels huge compared to the previous space. Knocking out that wall and corner pantry made a world of difference. As an added bonus the family room seems bigger, too, even touch we haven’t done anything there other than move furniture.
We should have cabinets soon…
Sounds like your project is coming along nicely! I know from friends that remodeling the kitchen is a big pain. Good luck!
