Last Friday we tore down the
lathe portion of our walls. That is actually pretty easy. Unfortunately many years ago in our house they had insulation blown in the walls and ceilings. So when you pull down the ceiling all the dust and insulation comes with it. Anyways, here is a before shot of the door and closet...
And here is the after. As you can see we removed the entire closet structure and reclaimed several feet of the hallway. The latter had a drop ceiling which contained the duct work for the air conditioning. We are going with a more industrial look for the room so the exposed duct system will actually help us.
Even with the great help from Shawn, Steve, and Eric; it still took about 4 hours and 19 full trash can loads to get all the insulation out. Here is a shot of me before:
And here is after. Even with the nice dust mask (i.e. not the cheap ones) I was still blowing black snot for the rest of the day. Nice image.
