Roof Begins

Thanks to Formica Company last weekend for helping us get a lot of work done! 

We began shingling the roof on the front and continued with interior demo in the afternoon when the rain started. The roofing is going well, but slowly. It is a 9/12 pitch and not easy to maneuver. 

On the inside you can see the new, open, eat-in style kitchen start to form as we are taking the old bathroom walls out. We had to bust up the 4" of concrete they set the old Marble tile floor on. We're still not sure why they went through so much effort back in 1929 to notch all those joists in the bath and we'll be replacing all the joists in this area. On a good note we did discover the back wall between the garage and basement is 2x6 construction, so we'll have plenty of room for insulation.
