Pre-Demolition

In two weeks we are going to be tearing down a wall and re-dry walling all the walls and ceiling. Also, we will be doing some flooring and the fireplace.

As a Christmas present, my parents are going to help. Today, my dad came out to see what we are looking at.


The wall are dry wall. The ceiling is plaster. The wall we are taking down is part load bearing, part not.

I'm excited to get started.

Demolition is fun. A sledgehammer and a prybar are two of my favourite tools. Just be prepared for all kinds of nasty surprises when you open up the walls. You never know what you'll find and the job is never as easy as it first appears. Enjoy!
