The basement of our house suffered the most water damage so we had to do more work here. The fun started with removing nasty insulation from the top of the foundation.
 |
| I did the nasty work on the ladder |
 |
| While my mom cleaned it all up from the floor. |
After we got the insulation removed we sprayed all the wood framing with bleach water, scrubbed it clean, dried it with fans and then worked on painting the walls and framing with special mold-preventing paint.
 |
| This is what it looked like when we started |
 |
| And when we were all done.... so much brighter and cleaner. The scent in the air is much improved as well! |
We also replaced the header over the French Doors to help improve with the sagging floor up above.
 |
| New 2 x 12 or something like that - big ass board if you as me |
I am finding out just how much I can lift when Mark says "here hold this up" and then gives me one end while he climbs the ladder to put it into place. You can still see outside from inside but hey let's not rush things.
