Whew! Whirlwind time!

Well it seemed like we were always looking at products, but not knowing what to pick and man did we spend A LOT of time doing that! But we just this week met with two companies who I would recommend to anyone and they saved us so much time, hassell and I wish we would have just done them first!


At Probuild we picked out windows, doors, trusses, lumber, decking, closets, stair railings, trim, interior doors, siding, exterior features, door hardware, and more!

At Images Flooring we picked out carpet, wood floors, tile, countertops, fireplace, backsplashes and more!

They both have our bids right now getting ready, so we'll see what those come in at at then finalize things. We're getting there!

NEXT- foundation quotes, HVAC and plumbing quotes and picking lighting fixtures.
