This has been a bittersweet development for us. On one hand, having insulation and the dry walls done on the roof means that we have taken a huge step forward but the quality of the work leaves us bit dissatisfied. After consulting three different companies we chose to work with someone who seemed to fit the best with our needs. But maybe it's the lack of command of Portuguese on our end or the difference in work culture or both, the difference between what we wanted, and what has been delivered is a bit too big for our liking.

The dry walls are not symmetrical in any angles in the corner of the house. The wall in the kitchen side is also not a straight line, rather a curve. We are in no position, neither financially nor with time to redo the ceiling so we have to accept this asymmetry.
