We love a good remodel! Part 2 - Demo




This is where the new entry will be

Bye bye old sunroom / hello new kitchen area

First section being taken apart



Notice the retaining wall along the left side.  We do a lot of projects on the side of hills in Ashland

You can see how we added a few feet to the exterior along the living room.  The foundation to the left is the new master closet

The old foundation was so out of level.  It was hard to decide how to tie in the new additions.

Deconstructing and saving anything we could.  Wood that was not worth saving was used as firewood in the new fireplace


Tarp city is beginning to form.  Ah, building through the winter in the pacific northwest


Keeping the existing house tarped during the building was a challenge

It was kinda creepy being inside the tarp city when the wind would blow hard

Yes, that is a HUGE tarp.

We did the project in sections so we didn't expose ourselves to the weather if we didn't need to.  Remodels are a real art.   You need to constantly think out of the box and roll with the punches
