Memorial Day

Memorial Day…the start to summer on the island has begun. Things have picked up, there is traffic and time spent looking for parking and waiting in lines. Summer is here. Now bring on the beach days and fishing!

Our major renovation project is finishing up. Everything is on schedule. The painter should be complete by this weekend. The tile sub contractor completed the tile in the showers. The electrician and plumber have their final inspections called in. Move in day is around the corner for the owners!!

In Vineyard Haven at the Mayflower Lane project the drywall sub is near the end of the project. The finish carpenter has begun installing trim on the interior of the home. Things are looking good over there!

The certificate of occupancy for the Barnes Road project should be completed by next week. Finishing touches are happening there as I type this.

Enjoy the holiday weekend and happy summer folk!

Is that the sun?

The sun finally decided to grace us with its presence, thankfully finally feeling like spring and not winter around here. Flowers are blooming and grass is turning green. Traffic is picking up all signs of summer is near on the island!

Checking in on our Vineyard Haven project – the drywall team is working hard on the main living room area at the moment. They have about another weeks worth of work to be completed at the home.

In Oak Bluffs on the Harbor at our major renovation project the home is nearing completion. The landscaping is underway, the painters are working on painting the entire house. The plumbers and electricians are working on their final inspections. The tile has been completed in all the bathrooms. It is coming along really nice and we cannot wait to see the finished product in the next few weeks and the happy owners will be moving in soon!
