Sunday Demo

This is the work we did Sun the 20th.
We were somewhat tired, but Andrea and I put in a couple hours starting on demo in the bathroom. Always a fun way to get out your frustrations!
There was mold behind the shower enclosure of course, so it's good to be rid of it. Luckily only one of the four walls is plaster (that's coming down another day).
I thought I had a photo of the other side but can't find it - the bathroom door is now gone, as is most of the wall on the door side of the room (where this photo was taken from). I avoided the fixtures for now so we could keep the water on as long as possible - I'm not sure how long it will take us to finish this project.


Once we were done with the bathroom - apart from the walls with plaster and fixtures - we started tearing out the carpet and pad from the stairs and the upstairs hallway.
Luckily, everything looks better without the carpet :). It will be some time before I can properly finish the stairs. In the meantime they don't look great, but the subfloor that is there is much better looking than the old, stained, worn carpet. We lucked out with the upstairs hallway - as I was hoping, there was hardwood under that carpet which matches the floor in the bedrooms.
