At 8:20 two guys were at the front door phone box. I answered and heard a chipper voice say "We here and we're ready!" Dan and Darrell. Dan is a tall nice looking beanpole white guy. Darrell is a fairly hot muscled black guy. They are nice and friendly and articulate and enthusiastic. Exactly the kind you want for a job like this.

They first wanted the water shut off valve. I said 'alexa, turn on fan light'.

Darrell missed ZERO beats and said 'alexa, play Curtis Mayfield.' So Curtis has been helping from the start.

I told them I was fine if they did not want to wear masks in here (but be sure to put them on in the hallway). They both said fine, thank you and left their masks on. Classy.

They just took the first load of stuff out so I got a pic. YIKES.

They are wasting no time and apparently have done this before.

Biggie is on patrol.

I set up one of the web cams so I can see what they are doing as long as they have the door open.

They are now cutting the tub into bits. Curtis is getting drowned out.

It's all so cool.

So messy, but so exciting!!!
We plan on having our main bathroom converted to just a shower stall too since we never use the tub and it's hard to climb in and out of because the sides are so high.
But that's probably not till next year or so, since we have to have a failing wood retaining wall along our fence line redone in concrete with rebar soon so money's going towards that soon.

That's so much fun! Having moved into a place where the main suite's bathroom is a giant walk in shower (after who knows how long of places with bathtubs), I definitely share your excitement at the change. It's so much nicer not to have to step over the tub wall, or fuss with a shower curtain.

I love that picture of Biggie. At first I thought it was a pig! And those bright greens make me very happy.

I like the stand for your phone. Now that we have daddy cams, something like that would come in handy. Thank goodness for Amazon.

It's nice to hear they are being so professional. I'm always impressed when a business coaches their employees.

Biggie is having a great day!
