Outside it got to 48 last night. My house didn't drop below 65 which is nice. Once I have the ceiling insulated and the drywall in this should definitely help my heating bill.

Yup, button it up B4 the Pennsylvania winter blows in.

I'm not worried about that I need it buttoned up before I have puppies on the ground in November. Good time to be on vacation to get things done if Lowe's stops pushing my orders back

Got the master bedroom subflooring done. Had to use the leveling cement to fix some areas and I cut some pieces of the left overs up and used said cement to fill the gaps not destroying a piece for a small section so I said screw it and used what I had. Perfect no but once the flooring is over it I won't feel any dips because it's smooth and flat.

Today sucks already picked up the bedroom doors yesterday and realized the area I had for the door will not work. Stupid people that built the house and the slope of the back roof is so that I cannot use the door without cutting 4 inches off of it just so I can not hit the sloped beams. So today I will be reframing for a door in a different area and I still have another wall and closet to do. Glad I found this out now and not when it was dry walled and finished, note to everyone learn from my f☆☆k ups.

Drywall is the bane of my existence 🤦‍♂️. Glad you were able to move it around prior to really letting some F bombs rip....more than I’m sure they already did

Know what you mean. Our 1st house was built early 40’s and my Dad and I were doing similar projects.
You wonder sometimes “what were these morons thinking”! You’re doing a great job getting it right.

Thanks I'll post pictures tomorrow of the wall that I did today and the closet. I have 2 bedroom doors to hang tomorrow also which will make me feel good along with running the pex for the heating upstairs.

Got the two bedroom doors hung, closet mostly built and the last of the electrical done. I would be pushing it to be done before puppies hit the ground but have to make a trip to see a family member battling cancer next week when she gets out of the hospital.

Just had a consult for solar on the house and it turns out that the price of my solar panels for 100% usage of my electricity costs less than my electric bill for the winter. Sounds like it's a good idea to me.

Door handles are now in the doors and got most of my nailers in place for hanging drywall need a few more board then I'm done.

Ran a bunch of pex today so when my drywall gets delivered this week I can drywall things up and run heating. Got only a few pieces left to run and my heating system can be hooked up. Now I just need a freaking plumber to get back to me so I can get things buttoned up and the heat on. Puppies hit the ground in 2 weeks then my free time is GONE.

  • 2 weeks later...

Not improvement but fixing the already improved?

started pellet stove Monday, auger wasn’t kicking on. Cleaned it all out, hopper tubes etc again (I clean every spring deeply so usually no issues). Jumped out the vacuum switch that allows the auger to turn...nada.

removed auger motor and ordered new one came today. Bench tested old one at work proved it was bad. Swapped and went to start (luckily didn’t put it back together) nada. Jumped out the pressure switch WALA operation. 
All in all bad pressure witch and auger motor. Good thing stove place down the road has it in stock. Fire tomorrow!

We got fire. Had a little mishap as I forgot to tighten up the exhaust pipe (I can see @tommc23and @bens197 rolling their eyes now). Was right there when I started it though and gave myself a 🤦‍♂️Dumbass palm. We warm now just in time for the snow today

Wow....lots of great upgrades & detailed design and finish work in that kitchen!!  I like the tile floor, soffet and trim work above the cab's!  Nice recessed lighting & lights over the island too! 

Whats the plan for the backsplash?  Good luck getting a decision from the decorating committee, I hope your experience was better than mine.  I was taping tile patterns on the wall for 2 months while that decision was being made!    🤣

One thing I'll mention here about the fridge which I wish I had done but I will probably do this winter...  Take the drywall off the wall behind the fridge and let it recess that 2.5" into the wall cavity.  A friend of ours did this and it may seem like a small amount but those couple inches make a real difference in how far the fridge sticks out from the side cab's.  Of course the wall can't have elec or plumbing in it where the fridge will slide back so that may be a limiting factor.
