3 months

It has been exactly three months since the discovery of the New Years Eve flood at the office and we're FINALLY put back together. There are a few odds and ends we have to touch up but for the most part the work is done and the offices are unpacked from storage. We've filled two dumpsters worth of stuff from unpacking and cleaning out offices and we're having an on-site shredding company come out to shred the documents that need to be tossed.

An entire half of the 2nd floor has been completely gutted and renovated. Roughly 75% of one half of the 1st floor was completely gutted and renovated. The third floor only required some new carpet, a little new paint, and a few touch ups. We've also replaced - and upgraded - all six of our heating and cooling systems. We've replaced all six water tanks (three with tankless systems and three with flood prevention devices) so hopefully this will never happen again due to a water heater. The data wiring for the entire building was updated and replaced and we got new cubicles installed on the 2nd floor. We knocked down a few walls, did a little rearranging and voila! We're done.

I can't believe it's finally (almost) over. Our final inspection will take place any day now and then we move onto some other building issues that were unrelated to the flood. We're replacing the roof which is leaking and fixing or replacing the windows that are also leaking. We have to build a shed out back to house our recycling and compost bins since we're no longer allowed to keep them in the building based on code compliance concerns by the City of Cambridge.

It has been a long, long, LONG three months but I finally see the finish line and it looks great.
