Progress Update: Drywall Flying, Deck Taking Shape & A Desk Like No Other

Every week on these projects feels like a step closer to the finish line, and this past one was no exception. From hanging drywall to sanding a one-of-a-kind desk, things are buzzing on all fronts.

Garage Build: From Open Space to Real Room

The garage project is transforming fast. Insulation? ✅ Passed. Back wall? ✅ Framed. Ceiling drywall? ✅ In place.

And now—we’re tackling the walls! Drywall is going up today, which is always a turning point. Once the walls are in, the space suddenly feels like a room instead of just a framed shell. Monday, we’ll have the drywall inspection, and then it’s on to tape, mud, and smoothing things out for a polished finish. Every sheet brings us closer to closing this build in tight before the colder weather rolls in.

Deck Replacement: Another House, Another Transformation

Different property, different city, but just as much progress. The new deck is moving from foundation to frame, with the top of the stairs and railing posts already taking shape. This is the stage where you can really see how it’s going to live—how people will walk it, gather on it, and enjoy it. Right now, it’s lumber and bolts, but soon it’ll be a space for grilling, relaxing, and soaking in the outdoors.

Secret Room: The Desk That Won’t Quit

Then there’s the “secret room,” home to the most ambitious desk we’ve ever built. This isn’t just a desk—it’s a centerpiece, designed to anchor the whole space.

But first, sanding. Lots and lots (and lots) of sanding. It’s the not-so-glamorous part, but it’s what makes the paint finish look flawless. We’ve been at it for a while, but that’s because this desk isn’t just big—it’s luxury-level big. Once painted, it’s going to be a jaw-dropper, worth every pass of the sandpaper.

Why These Steps Matter

Sure, drywall, framing, and sanding aren’t the flashiest updates. But these are the milestones that make the final reveal possible. Each screw, each sheet of drywall, each railing post, each sanded corner—it’s all laying the groundwork for the wow factor that’s coming.

And that’s why we’re excited. Every week we’re moving from plans and prep to spaces that people will live in, work in, and make memories in.

👉 Stick with us—we’re not far from the big reveals, and trust us, they’ll be worth the wait.
