RENOVATION

 From the time we moved in we knew this Paper was just not going to work for us. We decided that we would have to pull it down. 
What we did not know was that as we pulled it down 
disaster would strike!!!

We found that hidden underneath the paper was cracks, unfinished patches and layers of paint and wallpaper. Who needs to strip the wallpaper...just paint it. NO!!!

 The Discovery led to one decision that we would be starting fresh in the bedroom....If we have to fix it we can at least insulate. :)

 As you can see my mask did not work.

 All the plaster down and clean floors.

Lath down and Insulation is next!

 Insulation out!

Walls Cleared and Carpet Pulled!

Sub flooring Pulled! 
(The Base Boards were trapped under the sub flooring.)

After Some Scrubbing! We think we can salvage the Floor! 
(Silly previous owners they make things called drop cloths!)

Base Boards Pulled! 

We Finally have the demo Complete!!! Next stage plugging the holes and then on to Spray foam insulation! After that will come drywall! 

I so desperately want to have walls! Especially so that I can Paint them! :)
