With our original contract now completed on perfect time with our team of workers (other than the original electrician), our new contract to paint the entire inside of the house begins. So work began for our same team (for less than $1000 including 1 coat of sealer and 2 of paint throughout the house + cleaning, sanding and repainting all our wrought iron protectors - 11!) began!
Unfortunately, the electrical team, Raoul and his 19 year old son Omar, are still playing catch up!
So, when some rooms are already painted, the boys often need to go back in, open up more concrete, and put the wiring in the places it should be!
Which of course creates more work for our guys, but they're still smiling!
And despite too much paint on the floor for my liking (okay, I know I'm picky!),
they are doing a great job and very quickly!
And Juan Carlos is still alone in the back putting together the added touches we wanted on the pool!
My corner bench in the shady spot, for relaxing and having a glass of wine while bathing! Ha!
It will happen!!
And the appliances arrive!!!
The front gate is to be installed, and the wrought iron boys start with the sun arch at the top!
Looking pretty stunning!
Okay, not bad either :)
Wow! Our new cleaning lady and her crew (4 of them) worked from 10am to 8pm and found a beautiful house underneath all that dust!
10 hours x 4 people = $700 (pesos, not Canadian dollars)! You can do the math by now.
Pretty stupendous!!
And Vic rearranged the furniture we had from the previous owner into the office/spare bedroom, and once cleaned, makes for a lovely office!
Can you believe it!! We're still not sure.
Look, I even have the absolutely unheard of here, a dishwasher!!!!
