18 July 2022 - The door has been covered and a deck built. Notice the white columns.
18 July 2022 - The purple sheet rock is moisture resistant. It is required where pipes penetrate the wall (behind sinks, for example). Typically, we use it everywhere in the bathrooms so there is not a problem if the room gets steamy after showers.
18 July 2022 - Wide oak boards are on the floor that will be used for flooring. The flooring wood needs to be acclimated to the room so it won’t shrink or expand and buckle after it is installed.
18 July 2022 - Sections of the roof sheathing are being replaced on the building on the right. It will be covered with Ice and Water (heavy underlayment) before the final roof covering is installed.
18 July 2022 - Decorative beams are being installed.
18 July 2022 - Windows and doors are on site.

18 July 2022 - There is not a lot left of the original house. Remodeling usually required demolition and then construction.
18 July 2022 - The interior here is being built. The floor is wide oak. The walls are poplar which will be painted. Poplar makes an excellent wood for painted trim because the grain of poplar does not show.
18 July 2022 - Here are more poplar walls and oak flooring. There is a lot of detail work when the interior is finished with wood.
18 July 2022 - The framing is sort of like a skeleton for the building. There are a number of temporary braces in place to hold the framing plumb and square.
27 July 2022 - The roof sheathing is nearly complete on the new screened porch.
