Destruction:
Eek. The kitchen built-in has been taken out…
…and placed into our still temporary storage area: the laundry room.
Construction:
The wall where bathtub and shower head will go goes up.
The old location of the built-in on the left, the new location of the built-in on the right.
In addition our pain in the ass bathtub has arrived!
Look at that! First it’s gone, now the new floor is there.
View towards the dining room.
Wow! No kitchen floor!
Holy dog doodoo! Our bathroom has a giant hole in it!
Look at that lovely crawlspace under the bathroom.
An unfortunate little bathroom booboo. Some plaster damage in the hallway from the bathroom demo.
Trying to make ourselves useful (and me getting very itchy to do some work!) we decided to start demolition in the laundry room…
Crazy wiring above removed drop ceiling.
Fuse box and partially removed siding.
Two days later…
The kitchen wall and ceiling look very raw.
Everything feels so naked.
The bare windows; no molding. Not that you can see it, but those big gaps inbetween the windows hold the window weights (used to work the window mechanism).
The bathroom – what a mess!
The bathroom ceiling. Or well, lack thereof. Really you’re looking at the roof slats.
