Home Improvement

Here are a few photos of our master bedroom renovation. This project was supposed to be finished by Christmas. (Christmas 2007!) What started out as putting in a hardwood floor, ended up being a complete remodel. We moved into the spare room, shut the door to this room, and pretended it didn't exist. We've made some great progress over the past few months, and it's finally coming together.




Here is a "before" photo.

Under the carpet was particle board, then a layer of misc bits of wood. So, we had to strip everything down to the floor beams. Lucky Emmet got to crawl around on the ground and insulate the floor.

Dad came to Oregon for a weekend to help us, which was great! Here's a "demolition" photo.

With all the blown in insulation and three layers of dry wall removed.

New insulation is in, and Emmet’s working on dry wall.

Dry wall and plaster complete. Hardwood floor installation in progress. It’s starting to look like a real room again! Oh yeah we also installed new windows, and had a door to the backyard added. More photos coming soon…
