After we got the quotes for having the drywall I hung finished, the YL and I sat down to review our options. We got 3 quotes - two of them were very close to each other, and the third was very high (so high, that I suspect the guy didn't actually want the work.) Since the other two quotes were very close, it made sense to me to go with the person who is another ham! We dropped the check in the mail last week, and this week the fun started out in the main part of the basement:
I'll be sure to share some more pictures when the drywall finishing is complete, since the first coat of mud and tape isn't really the glamorous part of drywall. While the work down there continues, I'll be getting some paint and flooring together so that the YL and I can move along with that stuff as soon as the drywall is ready for paint :-)
