Project #3 - "The living room" Part 2 SUPPORT/ELECTRICAL


With demolition completed we can now start on rebuilding the living room. The original plan was to remove as much of the dry-bar, chimney, and half wall.  Well as you can see some of those plans changed.

The chimney was to badly damaged to remove and was never removed from the second and third floors.  So taking it out would have been a pain in the butt.  The dry-bar was also unable to be completely removed because of the tunnel under that part of the house.  The only thing I was able to remove was the half wall, at-least its something.


Insulated and building a frame on top of the existing studs

Project #3 - "The living room" Part 1 DEMO

Now that we have the backyard and kitchen under control and completed we finally started the living room.  This is a highly anticipated project for the family.  Not only because we didn't like the layout of the current living room but once completed we would feel comfortable having guest over.  Not to mention removing outdated electrical and decor.

I have already had the windows replaced.
