Our World - Still in the kitchen

April 16 - The coffee pot is the last to leave the kitchen.

April 17 - Range and cabinets gone (Range will return). 

April 24 - New cabinets arrive.

April 30 - Cabinets are in place. Countertop folks were here to measure for exact fit. It will be about a week before thay return with the countertops. There is still some work to do on the cabinets, the pantry to finish, and the electricians will return to add the switches, lights and outlets. And the painter will be busy. Then the tile guy will do the backsplash above the countertops.

We have had a lot of threatening weather recently, but only one real good rain.

The ceiling in the garage was braced to replace a few termite damaged wood in the kitchen wall.

Part of a wall was removed to open up the kitchen for more light from the dining room.

The electricians ran wires for new lightng and outlets. And marked the ceiling where new recessed lighting will go. That is the original single hanging light.

Our World - Kitchen remodeling part 2

Olga and Dan were nearly finished when I took this shot. The moldy drywall was already bagged. Insulation was removed just in case any mold was hiding. Below they are removing debris from the floor. Paul Davis Restorations specializes in fire, water and storm damage in addition to mold. Thanks to Olga, Dan and Jerry for solving our mold problem quickly.

The termite damage is over the door and a six foot section of the wall. This damage is being repaired by Brian and his crew. (The termites were treated years ago and have not returned. There had been no reason to tear into the wall until now.)
