Day 11

Nothing from the contractors yet!!!!! However John called from work, and he said that a giant dumpster is sitting in the front yard. And he drove by at about 7:30am this morning. But again no one at the house!

Leon, project manager finally called at about 12:15pm and ask if I was free this afternoon to meet them. I told him I would be in area at 2:45pm because I had to pick Andrew up from school. He said ok....

Well drove by house and stopped to see progress.... Just what no one at the house. Mom was not to happy with that news.

At about 2:25, chris the carpet person called to say he would be at house between 3-3:15 to meet with me..

3:25 and the carpet guy showed up. He measured everything, and I picked a color. He said it would be 3-4 weeks before we see him again.

Day 10 update

Drove by the house after getting Andrew from school, and guess who was at the house...... If guessed the project manager, you are correct.

He said they are starting tomorrow, and that they were finishing up money stuff today. Said the carpet person should call in the morning to meet with meet. Also said they are going to change the electrical in the living room (switch by fireplace) and wire Meadows bedroom to have only one switch..... They did not know or find the track lifts in the living room either. Oh, did I mention that they want to charge me per paint color I use in the house..... So after talking to John, we will go with the main color throughout the house, and we will go in and paint the kids rooms along the kitchen. Also, found out that that might charge me for moving the kitchen island back 1 foot from where it is at right now. Plus side they said they will probably finish the rest if the work in Meadows room.

Progress

I was looking at the progress of the contractors work, and well it does not look good. The contract with the contractors were signed November 17th, and tomorrow will be three weeks from that date. During that time they have only been to the house twice. Once to get the items that needed to be stored (day 1) and then the project manager & subcontractor went out to look at everything (day 3). Other then that nothing.......... Boo!

Day 10

Well, it is 1:08pm and no one has called me to say they are on the way to the house to start work.  Dad stopped by just a few minutes ago (as he was going to the doctors), and he said he just left the house and no one was there. I'm starting to think that Assurance Restoration was not the choice to make for a contractor.

Day 9

We are at day 9 and nothing still. I called Leon the project manager. He said that the subcontractor is to start demo tomorrow. He said he will call on his way to the house since the first thing they will do is electrical, and he knows some electrical is going to change.
