My MB. Shower door was installed today and I know what you mean, after the installation, I hugged the shower door guy! Funny, it is the little things that make me smile. All he wanted was the check but hey a hug is free, right.
Loved this post!

HAHAH! That is so funny. We were so happy with our contractor that we bought them lunch and then sent them home with a bunch of margaritas.

Your contractor seems like a dream! I've gotten to know mine quite well. He's on another job right now, so his partner is here....and I kind of miss him.

I'll have to remember the "sponge'' when we get to that point.

Just a big old mess at this point!

Kissing is allowed....for sure. BECAUSE that dust gets everywhere and it is impossible to remove it all! It just keeps settling for months.....lucky for you.....a new closet :)

Well, I kiss my contractor all the time...but he is my husband. ;) I opt for fresh baked cookies for the trades.

Can't wait to see the finished product!

Hi,
I've never left you a comment before, but this was just too funny! I don't know about kissing, but I've hugged my contractor more than once. Not for minimizing messes- but they wield so much power to make us happy.

Looking forward to seeing your completed closet. I'm going to be working on closets and master bath very soon.

best,
Julie

2012-01-24T08:54:10.136-05:00

yep, he definitely deserves a kiss!! they also sometimes sand now with a vacuum attachement thingy (and yes that is the technical term, I'm sure;) which helps, but sponging sounds much better. I remember 20 years ago when we did work on our Dallas house we walked around the house (as we were living in it while renovating) in 1/4- inch of sheet dust on the ground! There's this funny picture of me sitting on the covered sofa watching tv one night surrounded by that 1/4-inch of dust like nothing was out of the norm!! ahhh the joys of renovation;)

We're DIYers, so I kiss my contractor all the time. Lucky you to find such a conscientious contractor. Love that closet image! I actually just used it the other day in a post on organizing closets.

Your closet is going to be fabulous.
I don't think I will kiss my contractor, but I do like the idea of not sanding. Please let us know how it works.

Gorgeous closet! One of my aspirations in life is to someday own a walk-in closet such as this.
