The Latest on Communication

The frustration over the slow progress and lack of communication continues. We finally acquiesced on the plumbing in the shower -- letting them run it through the walls after they screwed up and didn't bury it all in the concrete. They promise it will be silent. We'll see.

We do have to stay on them every step of the way.

But they continue to make promises about communication, and actual work, that are not fulfilled. A lady from the contractor called Liane the other day to check on things. Liane read her the riot act. Subsequently she started getting calls from the subcontractors. Promises were made. And not kept.

It does continue to inch forward, and in the grand scheme of things we're not that gripped about it, but it's annoying. We'd like to move back into our finished house. It will be interesting to see when they ask us for the next installation of payment.
