Rebuilding Together and Rebuilding Together Orlando are overjoyed about this week’s big reveal. On Thursday of this week Ms. Lipofsky’s home will be completed and she will once again have her independence back. The contractor has been hard at work to get everything ready for the last bit of work that will be happening on Thursday and, with tools and materials that arrived from Grip-Rite, it looks like everything will be ready in time. CBRE is excited to be providing some additional assistance and Rebuilding Together is excited to have them on board as well.
Late last week they work started on Ms. Lipofsky’s master bathroom. The original contractor had used all the wrong materials in the shower and it needed to be gutted and started all over again. The team has been working hard to make sure everything is as perfect as can be this time around.
- Installation of new backer board.
It was exciting to swing by on Thursday and see the shower tile work beginning. The team has picked beautiful pieces that are all starting to come together in puzzle that Ms. Lipofsky is going to be proud to call her own very soon. Here’s a sneak peak of the work as it was going on. I don’t want to give away too much, but I can say that she’s going to feel like she’s at a luxurious resort every time she steps into that bathroom.

I’m looking forward on Thursday to capturing the excitement as it all unfolds!
