A few weeks ago our develpment notified us that due to excessive leaks the water pipes in our section would have to be replaced. It involvolved cutting holes in the ceiling of our kitchen, pantry, entryway, laundry closet, 2 bathrooms, and a walk-in closet in the bedroom. I had to empty several closets and ended up with those things in piles everywhere. When the repairment finally started they hung plastic sheeting across the kitchen and dining area. I skteched them as they worked. I really can't complain because they worked well and cleaned up at the end of each day.
It took them about 4 days in total once they started on our unit as they moved from one apartment to another on our side of the building. They cut out the ceiling sections, replaced the pipes, put up new sheetrock, spackled, and painted the ceiling areas they worked on. I caught one of the men spackling the ceiling. Yesterday and today I painted the closets so I could replace everything that we removed. Next week they are coming back to repaint the whole apartment. Then we will be done!
Oh my, what a mess! You're a better sport about it than I would have been! Great job documenting the work. Hope that won't have to happen again!
