Paint and chair rails installed. I hit the subfloor with a level and laser to check for level. Damn floor is 1/2” high on one long side, and 1/4”- 1/2” low on one of the short sides. Not even close to plumb, so I’m going to have to do a full pour of self leveling compound on the entire room. You can’t install tile on an unplumbed floor or it will crack. Fun times. I just finished building “dams” around the room to contain the leveling compound, and have some more stuff to do before I caulk those seams and make the pour. It will probably be next weekend before I pour it out. I’m estimating 6-7 bags of leveling compound to do it.
No project I ever start is simple 😂!

I swear you need to attend my one hour symposium on quitting ... it includes lessons on how to solicit, evaluate, and finalize bids from contractors. :LOL:

Edit to add: I still have one window to paint... I had shit stacked by that window and didn't feel like moving it when I painted the trim. I'll paint it after the floor leveling is done.

I probable will quit for the day, at least until I cut the grass later. I have physical therapy today, so I don't want to overdo it on this gimpy shoulder. At least when I cut the grass, I'll be sitting down in comfort lol!
