Welcome back to another episode of Building My Dream Game Store! Today marks one of the biggest turning points in this entire renovation project. The demolition is officially behind us, and construction is now moving full speed ahead. We're finally rolling on the first coats of primer, covering years of damage, graffiti, stains, and memories—including saying goodbye to the famous skull mural that has been part of this building since before we took possession. Watching those bright white walls appear is an incredible feeling. For the first time, the building actually feels like a brand-new business instead of an abandoned storefront. Brian is back once again, helping oversee another major stage of the renovation. While I continue rolling primer onto the walls, Brian tackles the ceiling, replacing damaged ceiling tiles and making sure everything is done properly after decades of experience. With the primer complete, the next big jobs include painting, finishing the ceiling, installing the flooring, and getting even closer to opening Merritt Toys & Games and Rosie's Filipino Foods. The dream is becoming reality one step at a time. Thanks for following this incredible journey! #smallbusiness #entrepreneur #gamestore #primer #renovation #drywall #painting #retailbusiness #boardgames #familybusiness #businessjourney #mikemartins #merritt #canada #startup
