Our renovation began with demo week within the major suite upstairs. Here are the progress pics!
Demo Week!
The staff is into the swing of issues over there – our major bed room is now open to the clear blue sky!
When we began planning the row of home windows on the again wall of the upstairs, it was this view that we had been after. Our home sits excessive up on a hill, and we will see mountains by the bushes on a transparent day!
Mazen had first swing
Thomas has been promising Mazen a swing at a wall for months. Here he goes!
Things Got Dirty In There Real Quick!
It’s so loopy that I stated goodbye on Wednesday and by Friday that is what our lovely toilet appeared like:
The Before!
And then just a few days after that:
And then there was mild!
Another earlier than:
Same view!
Just that sliver of sunshine makes the area SO MUCH HAPPIER! I can’t wait to have a lovely window searching to the yard.
The Little Dormer
The holes within the roof had been created to construct the dormer, which is a option to sq. off the attic partitions to regular ceiling peak. I’m solely 5’2″ so I didn’t hit my head too many occasions over the previous 8 years, however Thomas (at 6′ tall) discovered the sloped partitions way more difficult.
How They Frame The Dormers
The crew poked a decrease row of holes and an higher row of holes and have been framing the little dormer from the skin, anchoring the body by the holes. Once the body is full, the within roof part comes down. This minimizes exposing the home to the weather till the dormer is prepared.
Openings for home windows
The one on the left is the lavatory and the one on the proper is on the high of the steps touchdown into the bed room.
That’s my father-in-law, John, up there on a roof at virtually 70! This entire staff is so expert (and powerful and courageous!)
Little Dormer is full!

You can see how low the attic wall was in comparison with how excessive the ceiling is now! The remainder of the attic is coming down this week as they craft the “big dormer.”

The entire demo week has been thoughts blowing to me!
Thomas says it begins with a bang and issues change in a short time, then there’s a lengthy lull with not a lot to see because the subs are available (electrical, plumbing) after which it ends with a bang when all of the finishes go in (paint, tile, fixtures).
Follow Along with Demo Weeks Ahead!
I’ve been sharing tales on Instagram @katheats and have a Story Highlight saved for demo. Go see all of it in motion!
