Our World - Kitchen remodeling part 1

Is your pantry bare?

Are your pots, pans, dishes and other kitchen stuff on the guest bedroom floor? That's the state in OUR world for the next several weeks. We spent the weekend (and a few days before!) packing up kitchen stuff in anticipation of the start of a total remodel of our kitchen. The previous few months were spent making the choices of cabinets, countertops, flooring, etc. (The appliances are staying) Brian's crew from Reality Builders arrived early Tuesday and went right to work.  

Appliances were moved out of the kitchen and cabinets removed.

The paneling removal started and a problem was discovered: MOLD! All work stopped and an expert was called. Jerry arrived and declared it mold and scheduled his crew to deal with the mold on Wednesday.  

Jerry, Olga and Dan sealed off the kitchen and hooked up a blower to vent any loose mold to the outside. This kept the mold out of our lungs, but disturb sleep (think leaving your vacuum cleaner running outside you bedroom all night). (to be continued)

I love makeovers; I watch every TV show on remodeling that I can.
Hats off to you as you remodel your kitchen. I'm sorry about the mold, and I hope that you find out the cause and eliminate it.
Happy remodeling. I look forward to the next photos. :))
Hugs and smiles,
