Justin and Adam worked hard on our basement last weekend. Unfortunately, they weren't able to finish. It took a lot longer for them to hang the drywall than they thought. For starters, neither of them are true handymen, although they gave it their best shot. The biggest issue that they ran into was that the ceiling in the basement is a 'dropped' ceiling. So for EVERY piece of drywall, they had to unscrew the perimeter of the ceiling, take the support off, hang the piece of drywall, and then screw the ceiling support back on. Talk about a pain in the butt! And of course they only had one drill b/w the two of them. Adam's drill was another problem - it was running out of power and they had to keep recharging it. Can you guess what is on Adam's shopping list now??? A heavy-duty drill!
The first piece of drywall! (it's green b/c it's mold resistant)
They boys got the entire upper perimeter of the basement finished. Adam will be able to finish the bottom half on his own. It should be much easier doing the bottom since they won't have to mess with the ceiling this time. Just cutting around the outlets :)
They did manage to get an entire wall complete in the laundry room!
We would like to give a big THANK YOU to Justin!!!! You were a great help!!! We truly appreciate it! It was great spending time with you.
Play with me Uncle Justin!
I love you! It's time for a hug!
