Lots of stuff done, good job.

However, 0/7 on the face plate screws not being indexed. Get some peel washers if you need to, but get those things in check. :OCD_is_real:

I had issues with running GFCI's in a series on the same circuit, so I had to take them on and off a few times. Forgive me.
Every one in my house is vertical! :lolol:

Lol, no they took all of the doors off to get unhindered access to the closets and rooms.

Also, no, they were bought at full retail price, about $1,400 in doors.

That's about what it used to cost to get more doors on a GTI, no?

What a total d-bag.

I can't stand people that take advantage of people like that, especially the elderly.... I'm going to guess it was the elderly that let him begin work without a written estimate.

I just hope they throw the book at him this time and he spends some real time away and is barred from ever getting a contractors license again.

They put three more coats of stain on the floors which hid a lot of the marks and spots the missed on the previous stain sessions.
It came out a lot darker than I imagined, but it looks great, I'm really happy with it.

These photos are pretty accurate as to the color too.
