And the beat goes on................The joint compound didn't dry, it froze! So, the contractor will be back tomorrow, to start on the "interior damage", and set up heaters in the garages, to thaw and dry the joint compound so that it can be primed.
There will be some inconvenience (did I really just say that?), but I will most likely get a new ceiling, and kitchen floor out of the deal...the water has caused the sub floor plywood to de-laminate. That will have to be replaced, which will then require new floor tile to be layed.
Hey!, I can move the microwave to the living room, and still be able to "cook my meals" :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
