Here’s what’s been happening on the house renovation! New hardwood flooring put in and toilet tile entering into!
I’m getting behind in my renovation updates! At first there was a lot to share when every thing was getting demoed, after which there was a lull through the rough-ins. Now there’s a lot occurring I can’t hold observe! This trim goes in, gutters happening, paint in all places. Here are a few of the enhancements over the previous few weeks.
Main Water Line
One very obligatory however horrible factor we needed to do was substitute the Sixties foremost water line to the home. This is a type of issues that was a “might as well do it while our grass is already taking a beating” issues.
The previous water line pipe
I’m so glad we did this as a result of look how the pipe was almost clogged!!!
That introduced in all of the water to our home – together with the consuming water – yuck! We ought to have glorious water stress now that it’s been changed.
The yard was a large number
Glad this half is over!
Kitchen Drain
While the excavator was there, additionally they put in a brand new kitchen drain. The kitchen drain in our home. The week I moved in again in 2015, the kitchen drain backed up. Apparently there have been building supplies dumped down it, and I’m positive it was already narrowed from years of use. We’ve had the drain again up at the least yearly within the eight years I’ve lived at this home. The previous drain went below the completed basement via concrete, so there was no changing that. We needed to full re-route it. The new drain is like 6″ in diameter and may match a complete lemon down in. YAY!
They had a little bit of a tough time discovering the sewer to attach it although. The excavation man is standing all the way in which up – that’s how deep the outlet was! SO glad that is over too.
Hardwood Floors
We had the hardwood flooring put in within the new components of the primary flooring. Our authentic flooring are pink oak, so we put in the identical to match. We’ll be refinishing the entire foremost flooring to match this lighter coloration. We’re utilizing the Bona Natural Seal, which ought to appear to be this.
While pink oak will at all times have a touch of pink, it will likely be a lot lighter and airier up there!!
The mudroom
Patches
Kitchen Shiplap Wall
Our shiplap wall was completed! Still wants just a few coats of paint.
Pantry
My father in regulation constructed our customized pantry! I actually needed a butler’s pantry to have the ability to tuck issues away. While we didn’t have area for a giant walk-through one, this counter below the home windows will likely be nice. I can’t wait to arrange this area! (Also wants paint).
Primary Bath Tile
Our bathe tile has been entering into day-to-day!
Heated Floors
Thomas’s large request was heated flooring! The tile will go over high.
Front Door
The new entrance door arrived!
The entrance porch has been in shambles for weeks. Can’t anticipate it to get cleaned up, painted, and completed! We haven’t fairly picked a entrance door coloration, however we’re leaning sea glass blue/inexperienced prefer it was vs. black or white.
Interior Doors
A small however necessary process: set up all inside doorways. This is what Thomas has been engaged on through the weekends when he’s on the home.
