The Attic

.......................................
Pretty in Pink!

The attic is now covered with R30 insulation. 
You can already tell a difference in temperature.
Pretty in Pink!





On February 24th,  2008 we ran some power through the breaker panel to test some ciruits and found that the attic light works just dandy! <grin>
..............................



Just a quick update here.  We've actually begun storing things in the attic!  Above right you can see some leftover tubing from our plumbing work.  Above left, the stairs access and a slight hole in the floor we cut to do some wiring.  We'll patch that up with some lap boards we have that were salvaged.  Left, the Attic light fixture is installed and just waiting for electricity.  Oh, and a light bulb too. :)


Something new has been added!
Going down?
Whith all the work on the roof done, we swept up the Attic and began wiring the 2nd floor.  Big Rick installed the stairs in the ceiling of the Spare Room so now we can enter the Attic through there instead of the Bathroom!  To the right, we're building a box over the recessed light in the Master Bedroom (left) &andwe're ready to run the chimney from the Kitchen wood stove to the Roof once it's ready.
Lights and a future chimney.

South side damage
West End
Dark
A piece of tin that blocked a hole fell in and caused damage to the Bathroom and Living Room below
Shot of the back wall, the roof has been leaking here where the chimney was, causing damage to the rooms below.
View of the front wall, the window is still intact, just missing a piece of glass.
West Wall North Side
Closer view of floor for the left side wall.
The right side looks very dry and stable.
Down goes the chimney
The chimney no longer protrudes above the roof line.  We had to take it down that far (for now) so we could put on the new roof. A few bats and a mouse family were not too happy with us.
