Basement Progress

Here you can see Nick's (macho man) handiwork

First he widened the crack

Next he filled it in

We hung new drywall

Then we painted. We should have replaced the floor first but we're still learning.

Chartreuse green (or as close as we could get) for Brandi

Buckram Binding for half of the main area

Bunglehouse Blue for the other half

Then we removed the floor. A process which involved scrapping off vinyl tile and then removing the adhesive by pouring lacquer remover on the floor and mopping it up. A painstaking process. Unfortunately some of the adhesive got on the bottom of the walls.

Now we are at the tile laying stage.
