| Basement Insulation |
I was delaying the installation of insulation in the crawl-space
under the downstairs until I had the kitchen renovation finished.
This was mainly b/c I was planning on re-routing a lot of pipes
and electrical, but I have decided not to re-route all of it so
the insulation went in today. |
| Living Room Recessed Lights Installed |
I took out the ugly ceiling fan in the center of the room and
installed 8 recessed lights to brighten the room up. |
| Dining Room Recessed Lights Installed |
As a side project to the kitchen skylight installation and while
I had easy access to the attic area, I decided to install recessed
lights in the dining room. It was a day and a half worth of diversion. |
| Kitchen Skylights |
I have bought and decided to install 2 big skylights in my kitchen.
Construction has started and I hope to have things done by the
end of the year. I am doing it all by myself... patience. |
| Screened in porch and back deck |
I have just hired CE Steele Construction to install a back deck
and screened in porch for me. I think they will start in December
and have it completed by mid January. Pictured posted 12/28/03

| Upstairs Hall Bathroom |
This was a complete demolition and rebuild, and
as usual the project got bigger as I went along. The link is to
a web photo gallery of the BEFORE DURING and AFTER photos with
descriptions for each photo. |
Upstairs Staircase Ceiling Photos
|
When I stood in the hallway on the stairs the ceiling was literally
at my chin. There was an ugly door that led to a crawlspace. I
tore the whole thing out and re-framed the ceiling giving it a
nice slope to match the stairs. First BIG project for me on this
house. |
