So, the painters are now done. The guy in charge has his GC license, so they also replaced a trim board (or whatever you call the vertical boards at the corners), put mesh over the attic vents again (yay, no more birds up there!), and powerwashed and sealed the deck.
I am very, very happy with these folks. They are excellent. Good work, very friendly. The ladder-across-the-driveway when I wanted to be able to use it in the evenings (and had told them so in advance) was really aggravating, but that was the only bad moment, and the work they did is top-notch. Anyone in the Wilsonville/South Metro area needs a recommendation for a painter or general contractor, let me know. However, I gather he's pretty well booked to the end of summer, now.
Put some new photos of the results over on Buzznet. I really hope we get to keep this color - I don't want those photos and a few days or weeks to be all I have of it, I like it. One of my neighbors filed a complaint with the homeowner's association. However...they approved the color, before we put it on. But now they want to talk to us at their Tuesday meeting. Um. What the hell?
For now, I'm going to assume we get to keep it. I can either worry and fret myself silly, and be irritated, or I can ignore it until Tuesday.
