Jenna Post

Got a new picture of Jenna and thought we'd break from the constant construction pictures.  The drywall is taking longer than we thought, but it's almost all hung now.  First coat should be on tomorrow and after a second coat we can get that floor going.

So here she is

This project would be done by now....

If only my crew were working a little more efficiently...

Using a nail puller on a wall with no nail....COME ON!

No more showers in the basement

The tub is in, with walls...and it has water.  Does it get any better than that?  The pocket door is framed out and short of running some electrical we are ready for drywall on Thursday. 

Tub is in...but not plumbed yet

Got some good work done today.  The cement board is all down, the doorway is framed and the tub is now in place.  Hopefully by tomorrow we'll have running water going through it.  We'll see.

A little more progress

The subfloor is all down and even now.  One of the walls got built (still have to frame out the opening to the bathroom) and the electrical was run down to the basement.  Hopefully tomorrow we will be able to have the floor ready for tiling and get the tub in place.

Almost ready to rebuild

Got all the old walls out, now almost ready to put down subfloor and new walls.

Progress

Opened up the hallway today.

Little bit farther

Today I got the floor out and the tub out.  Both were not enjoyable, but they are done.  The person who remodels this house after us owes us big time for putting in an acrylic tub.  The bathroom floor was concrete poured over 1x6's which were nailed in between the joists.  Another couple of loads to the dump tomorrow and I might be ready to start prepping for new stuff.

Renovation...

Here's the bathroom so far.  It seems likes this was at a good time; the wall next to the shower was rusting all the metal tiles.  It took very little tapping to get all the tiles to fall off.  Tomorrow the floor comes out.
