It’s well past time to finish our renovation projects

January 20, 2008 by Tricia

Since it’s so cold out today Chris and I spent some time talking about the renovations we’d like to do to our home.

Since our Living room / Dining room renovation project stalled three years ago we’ve been living with a ceiling that’s ready to have it’s tin ceiling installed, and walls that need floor and ceiling molding and quarter round done. We’ve got all the materials … it’s just as I said since we both went through periods of severe health problems we stalled. Big time.

So number one on our list is to finish the living room dining room renovations. Then we’ll move on to renovate our basement. We’ve got a bathroom and laundry area down there right now, but other wise it’s an unfinished basement.

The bathroom is really just a roughed in bathroom with a tiny shower stall and toilet. The sink is outside the washroom in the laundry area. So yeah, a really nice bathroom downstairs would be very nice. I definitely want to have a bathtub shower, a sink and some probably Grohe faucets to complete the look.

We still haven’t decided if we’ll put in a spare bedroom or just keep the majority of the space open and use it as a den/rec room. I’d like to have the spare bedroom, but as I’ve said many times our house is very small and even in the basement we don’t have a lot of space to fool around with. I guess we’ll have to think on things a bit more before we get started. Luckily we have that other project to finish first!
