Remodeling - Day 1

Just one day of owning this home and the remodeling process is underway!

First, we needed to rewire the entire house. After interviewing a few people, we decided on Chris Creighton from Creico Electric Company. They were highly recommended and have the grade of AAA on the BBB (Better Business Bureau). Today they started drilling holes in the walls to run wiring, and even installed a new electric panel on the outside of the house (as opposed to where it was, in the kitchen).

Here is how it looked before:

The writings on the wall (mock up of wiring):

New Electric Panel Outside of House


Andrew has also been hard at work, ripping out the wood paneling from the add-on room.

Here is a picture of the nightmare that was the room (of course, you can see pictures from a previous post)






Tearing it down:


The partially finished result (we actually have about 3 walls completed):



Stay tuned...LOTS more to come!
