Kitchen – Original Master Bedroom

This kitchen originally served as the master bedroom.  These cabinets and appliances will be removed and repurposed. The wall with the two windows will be removed to make access to the keeping room, and porch addition.

Mighty Jack

This jack was used to correct the sag in Jordan’s and Bri’s bedroom.  Each day it was cranked a little bit higher to gradually lift the floor to level it up.  Correcting too rapidly could lead to structural damage.

Stripped Walls

Primed for Paint

This is the painter’s room.  Most of their material is in view.  Note the electric/kerosene heater.

Instant Kitchen.  The long rainy season delayed the cabinets because they could not be painted due to the humidity and condensation.  I think the wait was worth it.

The plumbing fixtures are also going in, but I messed up on our filtration system thinking I could make minor adjustments to it’s high tech nature, oh well another lesson learned.  Who else knew that waste disposals were brand specific with the sink connector?  I didn’t.
