Kitchen Remodel
June 29, 2007
Jeff has been doing a lot of work on the kitchen. In addition to working all day long at his job, he comes home and works 3-4 hours each day and then all day on the weekends. He’s starting to get stressed out, but in the long run, we both know it’s going to be worth it. Here’s some of what he’s been up to.
Jeff started by demolishing the kitchen, ripping out all the cabinets and removing the drywall so that we are just down to the studs. He’s upgrading the electrical and we installed a new water heater, which means he had to have access to both electrical and plumbing in the walls.
Jeff worked with a couple of guys he knows in the business to help us with the electrical and the plumbing.
Additionally in the dining room, we had to move the window because it was installed too close to the front door. This is against code and the only two solutions are to move the window or install tempered glass. Jeff chose to move the window, which meant having to rework the framing of the front wall of the house.
