Adding an Addition onto our House Part 2

Moving right along with the addition.


Our home addition is coming along. This is about 2 weeks into it. The sheet rock is up. Taping is done and second coat of plaster is on. We were hoping to have the garage door in by today but the company that we bought it from broke it on the way here Friday so we will be receiving a new one Monday..
My husband is working on moving the sliding glass doors from the living area to the front of the new part today. I will share the pix this coming week..

Tips for plastering walls - 3 light coats of plaster, starting with 4" taping knife using larger one for each coat. Scrape each coat with edge of plaster knife, final coat sand/ feather edge with pole sander and non electric hand sander 120 grit mesh dry wall paper.

Most important avoid access plaster on coats...




Thanks for visiting!
