Van Gogh Restored / Wyeth Cracking

After a full four months being dismantled, one of the new bathrooms servicing a guest room upstairs has now been restored to service.


But now, seriously: if you were the general contractor and you built an addition for a customer, and then problems forced that customer to do without one of his new bathrooms for 120 days, wouldn't you at least make sure you restored it to the original condition, and didn't leave the grout smear clean-up for the homeowner?


I'm just saying.


Cracked Grout in Wyeth Bathroom

Here's a picture you should click on, so that you can get the full-size view of it:



It's a shot of the floor of the Wyeth bathroom, which is the one added on the southwest back corner of the house to service the back bedroom on that side. While nowhere near as extensive as found now in the master bathroom, there is definitely an issue here with the integrity of the grout used between the floor tiles. The picture above gives you a pretty good idea of where cracks have appeared in that grout and between the tiles. This will be more for the general contractor, Peter LaRoque of LaRoque Construction of Mocksville, NC, to correct when he is here soon.
