November 2018 House Renovations Begin!

 While this house was move in ready, like any new homeowner, there were some changes we wanted to make. Up first is finishing the basement and upgrading the garages.

The basement wasn't finished, but it certainly wasn't a gross scary place. Still, we wanted to be sure to have a dedicated guest bedroom and bath. Plus, we wanted a room for all the exercise stuff, and the books/outdoor gear (library), and a rec room and bar/kitchen.
Framing was completed in 1 day plus a few more hours.


Our first wildlife sighting!
We should be getting electrical work done next.
While we hired a contractor for the basement, Dave and Mark C are working in the garages. The first thing we did was repour the floors.
Then they added a lot of outlets and lights.
And the messiest of all jobs was insulating the walls. Why a builder didn't do it before putting sheetrock up is a mystery!

Regardless, the one-car garage is ready to go with the exception of painting and putting the stairs back. This particular garage will be Dave's dedicated work area.
