Work begins in earnest

It's wonderful! The demolition crew has removed the fireplace that was collapsing, has cleared most of the stuff we agreed to clear and in the process uncovered some gems. Like enough original wainscot to patch all of the ceilings and replace it where it's missing. Or that there are hardwood floors in, to my knowledge right now, all but one room. Without the chimney the space is much much more open. I'm glad we were allowed to take this out!

pictures soon I promise

Met with Todd this morning to go over what stays and what goes. Basically, it all goes, excepting beadboard ceilings, wainscotting, windows, hardwood floors. All of the drywall, remaining ceilings, and the chimney/fireplace are going to be gone gone gone so very soon soon soon. Also, I got a recomendation from a neighbor of a person who can clear, grade, and seed the lot of Lizzy. That should be finished before Halloween.

Almost doubled the cost overnight

We signed the contract with Todd Hershberger at Cadence Construction on Wednesday! We're doing a demolition walk through Monday morning to find the things that are going/staying. Also, contacting folks about taking care of LOT OF LIZZY (lightening bolts and minor cords ensue...) 25 months after purchase we're finally starting work on the house!
