More Fun :)

I went out to the site today to shoot a couple pics . . . here's what I found. Basically we're just a few more steps along the way. Yeah, yeah, I know it's only been a day of work since my last posting (no, we don't work on the weekends), but still - there's progress. First off, take a look at the pantry:





I know - definitely not the most exciting photo. However, you can start to see the form taking shape. And at the top of the photo you can also see a little deeper into what a "remodel" means to us. Many people don't realize the extent of work included. It's not always needed, but usually provides the best end result.

See, by tearing out all of the ceiling and drywall, we can make sure there isn't any moisture damage, structural faults, or that kind of stuff. It also allows us to come back in with everything being new, therefor giving our clients a known quantity. There's no question marks about the construction or it's integrity. That's just one of the reasons we'll come back years later if the homeowner calls with a problem. You can see a little more in the next photo:

This is looking back at our "landmark" - the kitchen window. Yep, we've stripped everything down to studs. Again - it may seem like overkill to some, and it's not always required . . . however, it's not much more to do it right either. In our 30+ years of experience, this is typically the best way to avoid future issues. That's when it's a problem - when you have your "new" kitchen and something goes wrong inside the wall. Not where we want to be.

Well, that's about it for today's post. I'll be keeping track of the progress and will probably have another post up by the end of the week. Depends on what they've got on the schedule next.
