Catching up #4 Office Renovation

One of our biggest projects to date was our recent office remodel. We started tearing this room apart when we were fixing the sagging roof, back during our roofing project, and it sat sealed off for a while while we focused on other things. Finishing this room entailed fixing a cracked sewer pipe in the wall, putting in all new insulation, replacing some of the interior walls and the ceiling with new drywall; all new flooring, framing in two new sets of double doors and trimming these areas; building an area for the fridge to recess in, making custom beams for the ceiling, electrical for new outlets and installing lighting into the ceiling, and then new base and ceiling trim, (matching this to the existing knotty pine that we wanted to keep ended up being a big hassle!).

We also needed to run internet cables inside the exterior wall into the basement, which meant ripping apart the wall and completely rebuilding it from the outside, (giving us a jump start on our upcoming siding project!).

There was lot involved in getting this room back to where it was usable and now it's almost done! There's a few odds n' ends yet to be completed-some trim painting around one of the doors, we need to buy some window inserts to replace the ones that are missing, we need to install door knobs into two of the doors and then some wrap up with electrical. We also pulled one of our pinball machines out of storage and have moved it in, and this needs some electronics work as well. There's always something to do around here!
