The BIG renovation – Day 9, 10 and 11

Now the wall has been removed between the kitchen and the living room, I spend three days on the floor in the kitchen; basically taking off part of the top part of the floor, removing the electrical wires which I don’t need anymore and cutting slots in the floor for the new water pipes etc.

In the mean time, the support beams were removed as they had been there for a week to let the ceiling structure settle in.

As you can see, i added new water pipes. That is the place where the kitchen island is going to be. I still have to add some electrical wires at the same location, which will be for the dishwasher and for an electrical outlet for the kitchen island.

and this is the situation after 3 days. As you can see on the right side of the photo, there used to be a door to the kitchen. Since this wall is going to be used for the kitchen self, I had to remove the door and to close it with bricks and cement.

Tomorrow I will pour the new floor …..

Stay tuned my friends

    When do you rest?

    HA! Good question – I normally try to rest on Sunday – as in Sunday Funday. I wake up, we go for a run, have breakfast, go for a bike ride and than at 4pm I get itchy and grab my tools to start working again for a few hours. So to answer your question: Sunday morning and afternoon 🙂
