Yeah, ripped out everything to the studs, all new electrical, plumbing and heating. We were doing wiring until midnight last night.
I’ve always done these projects all myself, but I have a laid off neighbor kid doing grunt work and my daughters boyfriend is an electrician, both basically work for grinders and beer, so it’s been a huge help.
I’ll be a hell of a lot longer than 3 weeks! I hope to have the walls up floor in before Christmas.
As I’ve been scanning the Cyber Monday all week deals at Amazon, I’ve thought of you because they have lots of fishing stuff. You should check it out.
we have no ability to do anything ourselves, but our contractor is a guy we have known and worked with for well over 20 years and he timed everything perfectly to minimize the inconvenience, which i really appreciated. your’s is also much more comprehensive, we just switched out cabinets, put in granite countertops and new appliances, and a tile backsplash. the hardwood floor is looking kind of beat after all of that, so we may have to look into refinishing that.
Took me 3 years to do the whole house.
But, damn, it was worth it.
