10phone2 Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 yea they are putting in work today. Are they gutting the kitchen cabinets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 yea they are putting in work today. Are they gutting the kitchen cabinets? no idea. They haven't gotten to the laundry room/computer room in the basement. GOD I hope they rip down the entire kitchen. That's the ONLY part of the house that hasn't been upgraded/touched yet lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10phone2 Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 I saw the cabinets and thought listen I can take one for the team. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstmg8 Posted July 12, 2019 Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 Why ditching the concrete? Looks? Performance Issues? I every-now-and-then get clients asking about them. We usually deter them just because they are overly expensive compared to quarts or granite we usually use standard.Mostly because the wife wants something different [emoji12]. The sealer/wax/etc.. is a pia and just not that durable. The sink was also formed concrete, and badly beat up. It'll be great for a patio kitchen.

zeitgeist57 Posted July 13, 2019 Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 With that much mold now, I can almost guarantee the drywall/insulation/HVAC is going to be ripped out and replaced. How is the circuit breaker? If it’s not up to code, the electrician will have to replace/upgrade everything to bring it current.

(No pun intended) Yeah they already started tearing down the drywall upstairs. the breaker box was upgraded when we moved in but the electrical guy said it will be all ripped out and re-wired.

Zx2guy19 Posted July 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2019 I’m actually a little surprised they aren’t demolishing the whole house and building new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVE-O Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 ^ this. Dito And after seeing the damage pics I would not want them to “fix” it I would be pushing very hard on my Insurnace company to start fresh after that smoke and water and electrical damage it’s going to be like trying to repair a burned down then flooded car without taking it back down to a bare frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted July 14, 2019 Report Share Posted July 14, 2019 I also agree. I believe theyr'e just going to tear it down to the studs and go from there to see if it should be leveled or keep the studs and such and put new drywall up. I should know here by Wednesday or so. I'd rather just have the first floor of the house leveled and start over and possibly make some floor plan changes but I'm not at that point yet.

If they level it you have all the options the budget allows for changes Would hate to see a post down the road about a bunch of issues that slowly show themselves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Top floor is pretty much gutted down to the studs. Guess they're going to work on the basement tomorrow. Studs don't look too bad though. I mean, the closets and such in the bedrooms were completely dry for the most part. They are going to put all new wiring (already installed a new electrical box). New plumbing, etc. will be done. This was the kitchen. Pantry Master bedroom looking into the shitter, into the kitchen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwashmycar Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 Dem smellzzzz Yeah after smelling house fires for a couple years, I can hardly enjoy bon fires, or driving through the country. Sometimes even food trucks bring it back. They were not even my house, but its a smell I cannot shake. I couldnt imagine visiting my house during the process and having to smell that burnt-stuff smell. Then again, most might not be a scent pansy like me.

iwashmycar Posted October 9, 2019 Report Share Posted October 9, 2019 Looking for some info on LVP. Who has put it in? like it? where did you get it? We have Mohawk Driftwood Collective 33539 Boathouse Brown 7.5" wide plank (can you tell im just reading off the selection sheet) Seems really nice. Super durable. Dog hasnt messed it up one bit. Spills havent had an effect on it either. Since it "came with the house" all I know is Rite Rug was the supplier and used one of their install teams.

Rocky31186 Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Something I have been working on for awhile... Started with a leak in the ceiling, escaladed very quickly... Ended up ripping the entire ceiling out, running all new pex line to everything upstairs. LED can lights in the ceiling, new drywall, all new cabinets. Moved the fridge into the pantry, moved the pantry to the coat closet. Slid the stove and microwave down, put in an island and got rid of the peninsula counter top. Pulled up the old linoleum floor and installed wood plank tile. Installed a Giant apron front farm sink. Still a lot of work to do but here is a little update.
