The electrician let me down. Never came back to fix the problems. I had to hire another electrician and get another permit to finish it at an additional $700.00. Now the plumber decided he does not want to finish his job unless I give him another $1250.00 above the $2000.00 we agreed on before the job began. I have paid him $1500.00 so far and after talking to the county inspector he advised I give him no more until the job is done according to our contract. I plan on starting to dig the sewer line myself starting tomorrow. My SO and I have done everything thus far except the electric, plumbing and drywall. We built the whole thing from the cement slab to the building itself. I will post some pictures from start to finish. Thanks to all for the support and encouragement. I need it.

WOW............look at the size of that room.....and natural lighting!!! You've done a great job of planning (and work). Sorry you've had pitfalls, but am sure you will forget about all those when you finally enjoy the finished process. Thanks for sharing.
