Amáda doesn’t skip steps. She applies a second coat of primer to all of the walls. Next up: 2 coats of moisture-resistant paint on the ceiling.
Meanwhile, I start preparation work for a TV mount and cable tunnel.
First coat of wall paint!
Amáda chose “Agreeable Beige” for the walls. The first coat of paint went in the laundry room today!
We also had to prepare for the flooring installation by moving everything off of the floor. This included the bathroom vanity, washer, dryer, a refrigerator, and more. Somehow, we squeezed them into the only place available: the bathroom.
Vinyl flooring installation
We chose a wood grain vinyl flooring product that is suitable for basements. It gets glued directly to the concrete. An installation team arrives and gets started.
Vinyl flooring done and stairs carpeted!
The vinyl flooring installers finished their work today. The wood grain looks great! They also carpeted the stairs.
Second coat of paint in laundry room
Amáda carefully applies a second coat of paint to the laundry room walls.
Laundry room painted. Device covers going on!
Putting the covers on switches, outlets, and service panels is so satisfying. Amáda starts priming and painting the bathroom.
Laundry room trim, bathroom primer
I start cutting trim for the laundry room. Amáda starts the second coat of primer in the bathroom.
Making my own plinth blocks
I can’t seem to find any plinth blocks that are the right size or style. I’ve decided to create a custom jig for a router table and make my own plinths. Meanwhile, Amáda continues painting the bathroom and I prime the laundry room baseboards.
Bathroom ceiling finished!
Amáda finishes the second coat of moisture-resistant paint on the bathroom ceiling. I finish painting the laundry room baseboards.
Bathroom lighting and paint
I install the bathroom ceiling light, bath fan, and heat lamp. Meanwhile, Amáda adds the first coat of moisture-resistant paint to the bathroom walls.
