Egress Exterior Shot (mid-dig)

This gives you a sense of the size of the egress well and the amount of dirt that accompanies the dig.  The concrete in the well is the remainder from the foundation wall.

L-I-G-H-T!! How do you make a basement not a basement? LIGHT!! (the 'after' shot)

Thanks to Brothers Concrete for the slice and dice.  The shoring is temporary until the final framing is in place.

Featured Project: MR Kitchen

MR Kitchen was a complete gut and re-configure.  The old kitchen was over burdened by an eating nook that consumed half of the floor plan.  By opening the kitchen, dining room wall, adding windows, and re-locating the stove we were able to open the floor plan and bring the back yard into the home.

 

Here is a link to the project with 'before' and 'after' shots.

The finished 'hall'.

A coat of paint and a light fixture and she'll be complete.  Note the transom window in the upper end of the hall.

Here is the 'before' shot.

Here, and here are a couple of 'durring' shots.

'There may be some disruption in your daily life . . .' (Future kitchen stove wall)

The oven hood and stove will sit between the two framed out windows.  The wall to the righ was opened to the dining room for a future 'breakfast bar'/pass through.  Good Times.
