Construction update No. 4: Popping the top

Share:

Monday was the big day for the renovation: the day they pulled the top off half the house. Up until now they’ve been doing a lot of preparatory work getting ready for the tear-off. I swung by at mid-day to see just how it our house would look as a ranch.

Hopefully we’re all done with demo now and from here on out it will be all building!

Trying to find a place to put this piece of the house. They cut the whole upstairs apart with Saw-zalls.

They put a plastic barrier up to separate the “former” upstairs. I was remarking at how much brighter the house was when there’s no roof on it!

Loos like we’re going to need to find some money in the budget for some landscaping.
