The Door
This summer we bought a condo unit immediately adjacent to the one we already owned here in Vancouver, BC. So a lot of our time spent here this year has been preparing it for occupancy (furnishings, paint, network and telephone for example). And then there's the door.
The two condos share two walls. One is a closet on one side and the kitchen on the other, the 2nd is a non-bearing wall. Our big project was to install a pocket door within that wall.
We got one quote for the work -- $2300, which, based on current exchange rates between the US and Canada, would be about US$2299.99 -- a lot in any case! However, Kathy's Dad was up for the task, so we "imported" him from Michigan to do/oversee the task. Scott and Jack did most of the "work work", Kathy took care of the substantial clean-up task. Since we're on the 11th floor, all the materials have to go up the elevator, and all the trash back down -- a bag at a time.
The work's almost completed. The dust could still be around for years.
