... and in our basement.
Today was the day that movement really got started on our remodel. First things first - make a hole in the wall for a new window well. As you likely know, to make a bedroom a true bedroom - the room itself must have a closet and an alternate exit from the entering door. Since we wanted a true bedroom, and more light, we had a guy cut holes in our house. NO PROBLEM. Next the guy made many cuts in the floor to accommodate the new plumbing. To say the saw he used was noisy is the understatement of the day. It's a good thing Sarah took the dog for a nice long walk.
Other events of the day: the gas company installed a meter, the large "I" beam was delivered, and I started to nock down the old fireplace facade.

That seems like a huge beam. Where is it going to go?
ReplyDelete+ please tell me that you are not planning to cover the copper pipe...
Gabe - that's going up into the ceiling and will be completely hidden after everything is complete. You will have to visit and NOT see the beam - just what it created.
ReplyDeleteWon't be covering the copper pipe - ripping it out completely and selling it for scrap - unless you want to put a fire pole into your new house...
