Basement Renos

We started some renovation in our basement this weekend.  We were thankful enough to have Norm Fahselt (Chad's dad) come and help us out!  We got a good start but still have lots to finish up.  And when I say we... I really mean Chad and Norm.  I was more like a pilon, as Chad would put it, than help.  I offered to help many times; I finally did some mudding today and it turns out mudding is my calling..... Chad was quit impressed with my skills!!!

Basement Before



 New Fireplace location

Framing

 Framed and Drywalled In!!  All on Day 1

 Area into the Crawl Space Before

Framed in for Bi-Fold doors!!

 Spare Basement Bedroom Closet Before

This closet was so narrow it barely fit a clothes hanger in it.

Making it bigger and putting in a sliding door.

They were swearing at me all day, cuz the pocket door was difficult to install.

Neil helped out for a while.....

Norm reading the instructions for the pocket door... took almost all day for the one closet!

Hopefully I will be able to have the 'After' pics up and we will be done in a few weeks from now..... hopefully!!!
