09_15_2010 Garage Renovation Update

Thought we'd show you how the garage renovation is coming along. It's looking really great. The walls have been insulated and sheet-rocked. The ceiling has been finished. All the walls and ceiling have been primed and painted. Shelves/cabinets are being installed as are the lights. It's going to be bright in there! Before we had two of three light bulbs. It was a real cave.Lots of new outlets are available and there will be eight double-bulb lighting fixtures when all is complete.

After this part, Guy will be installing the new garage door opener, making an attic entrance and blasting in some insulation and sealing the floor. We'll get some new roof vents and voila it will be completed.

Dave is looking forward to putting all of his stuff back in a neat and organized manner. It's looking awesome!

I mentioned before that we are also doing some work in the backyard. It was a disaster area back there. Heck, it is still a disaster area. Guy has been building a shed to put some stuff in - it's almost complete.

When that is done, he'll transition into replacing all the rotten wood, leveling the yard,and adding some retaining walls. In addition, we'll move the stairs to the other side of the deck and expand the upper deck a bit. Next Spring I'll be able to get some flowers back there. And with it completed, we'll actually spend some time on the lower level. As it currently is, I won't even cut the grass back there. :)

I'll update with more photos as things continue moving along.
