About Me

My photo
I wanted to thank everyone who was interested in my house construction. Despite how much I hate blogs this would be the easiest way for me to share the progress. No talk about me standing in line at Target or other stuff no one cares about. Just construction, Good and bad.

Progress

There is finally some positive progress. Demo looks to be officially over and we are finally putting things back together. Hopefully by tomorrow everything will all be closed in. Check out some shots...

Tomorrow they will put insulation in the floor, and all the walls except the exterior. Unfortunately there is no space for insulation in the exterior wall.

The new wall is up and a second coat is on. Of course they used the green board everywhere.

New fan is in. It is super silent.

New vent is hooked up to the existing roof penetration. Unfortunately we will have to frame out a small soffit due to this pipe jog. There is a roof rafter directly above the new wall location.

Mostly done with the shimming and furring out of the existing wall. This will be the wall of the shower.

New toilet drain. Copper pipes are for the radiator.

New electrical. 3 switches. One for ceiling lights, one for fan, one for vanity light. Second box is GFI.

My house is covered with plastic. This is what is "protecting" my room. Of course there are so many gaps in the plastic that it is doing very little.

Living room and dining room is tool storage.

New bath tub in the back room. yes those are two original Eams chairs off to the side. The construction workers like to use those for their lunch breaks.

Patched the wall next to the dining room.

Starting to patch the kitchen ceiling. Once the tub is in, then the ceiling can be closed in.

The deck has taken a beating and become scrap storage.

And the trash pile continues to grow...
