Closet Continues

The closet work continues.

Following the Friday update, we found a significant plumbing leak.  It looks like the shower head control on the exterior wall is not connected to the piping because water is shooting out of it and dripping down to the basement :(

Apparently the plumber didn't notice or even check to see if there were any leaks.

I asked the GC if he ever sealed the shower floor (99% confident he didn't) and confirmed that he didn't.  He was "waiting until all the grout was touched up".  The tile has only been installed for a month and a half, no rush.

So since the sealer takes ~2 days to cure, I decided to seal the shower floor because, if they actually do finish the shower, it would be nice to use it rather than wait 2 days for it to cure.  Also, it looked like the water was starting to stain the floor, which is not good either.

I put three coats of sealer on it yesterday.

The bed was delivered and is a little bit shorter than standard king.  The bathroom mirrors were delivered but were black instead of white.  So we have to send those back.
