Rebuilding

It's so exciting now that the demo phase of the renovation is over and we are in full swing of the re building phase.

Our new subfloor has gone in for the kitchen and bathroom, walls have been rebuilt, and the drywall has been installed.

Today, the drywall mudder/taper is going in and then Jordan and I will be able to start painting!  So exciting!

After that the flooring, cabinets, trim, appliances, and final fixtures installs can start happening.

We're still probably 3-4 weeks away, but it feels like the home stretch.

I've been keeping track of every dollar we have spent so far (a little more than $10, 000) and what we have yet to spend (a little more than $35, 000) and am looking forward to sharing the breakdown with everyone soon.

We are saving where we can.  A few of our projects are:

  • Painting the cabinet doors ourselves (they are raw MDF)
  • Cutting, painting and installing the trim
  • All painting
  • Installing fixtures
Plus, we did all of the demo, and have done all of the runs to the dump.
