The Remodelling Diary - End of Week 1
Things are coming along nicely. I'm actually
excited about painting.
We are finishing up the week of remodeling. It
has been a beautiful Fall week for work.
We found oak hardwood under the half wall which was great. That should save a few dollars.
But then we found some chimney problems - that's a drag. I figure that the two offset so we are even in remodeling karma.
The skylights are in and are beautiful.
Drywall is going up today (one day late - not too bad). The soffits are being replaced now - as I type.
This should be the last day of pounding, grinding, cutting and dust up to your eyebrows.
I set a box fan in the window to clear dust all day and this is what the screen looked like last night.
Next up - two new windows in the back, a new fireplace surround and paint.
