Hey, remember these stairs?
Well the transformation is really something.
Some updates in the basement. Drywall is up and new floors are going in.
We opted for a wood-grain ceramic tile. It’s low maintenance and looks so much better than the emerald green carpet we had to get rid of.
Did I mention that demolition is gross and living through it isn’t much fun? Shocker, I know.
Right now, there are massive holes on the main level going down to the basement. One of the culprits is that we made a game-time decision to move the cold air return that was taking up way too much space, leaving a big hole that we’ll need to fill.
Ok, a lot of the projects we’ve been working on thus far haven’t been the most sexy. That’s about to change.
The kitchen is about to be demolished and rebuilt to a big, beautiful thing. But first, we had to get all of our shit out of the kitchen, dining and rear room of the house. We have a lot of things.
I really, really, really am not going to miss this kitchen. Not the pink counter tops. Not the multi-colored cabinets. Not the cabinet shelves that were never secured properly. No, really none of it.
Now that the floor is leveled, we’re reframing in all of the walls and reducing more bulkhead sizes!
That’s where the ugly support beam was exposed, Sealing it up will make the basement look a lot cleaner and neater.
