Well got a lot more work done this weekend. Slowly but surely I guess, I wish I had a week off from work to get all this shit done..

Resilience channel going up before the drywall + Roxul Safe and Sound. The reason for the resilience channel is for a physical barrier between the drywall and the joist(you don't want them touching) Really cuts down on the sound that will travel from the upstairs through the floor/ceiling. Plus as there's no such thing as a house that's completely straight/square the little bit of give in the resilience channels helps to make sure your drywall is nice and flat.



It was also time to move over the HVAC which was pretty painless (Sans all the cuts on my hands)





After the Roxul and resilience channel, it was time for some drywall. Buddy and I put this up.





New header I put together from three 2x8s for the opening into the dining room that I widened a bit.



Jack studs and king stud in place.



Old wall.



Bigger opening with new header in place



Now it's time to completely remove the doorway going into the family room and flush it with the ceiling..

First thing I needed to do was re-enforce was what already there to handle the load. So I needed to double up the 2x8 and add joist hangers to all the 2x6s.



Here's the two 2x8s resting on the LVL


Everything removed, only the temporary supports remaining.



Before I can remove the temporary supports, I need to replace the king stud that I cut out.



And here we go, support in place, temporary supports have been removed.



Quite the difference \:\)

Before:



After:



Now it's on to mudding/taping (Which I'm not doing, fuck that)

Coming together...

Do you have a dumpster out front or just taking loads to the dump when needed?

Any reason you went screws in the 3x8 header vs screws? Usually they frown upon screws because they don't have the same shear as screws aka break vs bend

Very nice - I'm considering messing around with a reno/flip with a buddy of mine and this inspires me more - lots of work but it will all pay off

Since this is stucture, I'm guessing you got a permit, and it gets inspected?

Most of the demo went into the bin we rented, that's been gone for about two weeks. I load up a trailer with the rest and make a run to the dump. Screws were used because I didn't have nails \:\) I asked my buddy beforehand, he said not to worry about it and just screw the shit out of it, lol.

Drywall has been taped and mudded, 1st skim coat has gone on in the hallway/entrance. Familyroom will be skimmed tomorrow along with the kitchen. Getting close to laying the floor, can't fucking wait for that to happen!

Finally it feels like I've done something, instead of just ripping shit down

Before we sprayed the ceiling we had to poly everything, apparently this shit dries extremely hard, so I didn't want any of that on the walls. I think I spent more time taping and putting up the poly then my buddy did spraying.



Moving shit around is becoming a giant pain in the ass.



My buddy Clayton spraying the ceiling.



Once the ceiling is done, what does this mean?!?!?! I need to level a section of the subfloor before I can start the flooring \:\)



Colours, colours and more colours.



From the front of the house until the back of the kitchen is 50ft. I'm glad these boards are wide, it speeds things up a bit. My buddy Colt is a master at this shit.



Not to shabby but a lot more to do.



I also hauled all the base cabinets out of the garage and our kitchen guy came by and installed them. Slowly but surely.



All the old uppers are in place still, I'll take them down once Cambria installs the countertops. Those are being templated on Thursday.

Finally starting to come around. We wanted a 42in space between the island and the base cabinets on the wall. More then enough room now that we ripped some walls down and put up that LVL. Won't be bumping elbows in this kitchen.

In my case that would mean the kitchen sink would be at my bed side \:\|

Or you know those 1 bedroom condos where you walk in and you are immediately inside the kitchen/living room/bedroom/hallway/closet and depending on which way your body is facing, potentially in the washroom as well.

No felt/rosin paper under floor? Should have at least ran a belt sander over the joints on the floor where the plywood meets.

Looking really nice.

Floor is also glued being that it's so wide, no need for felt or rosin paper. I also rented a screw gun from HD and put 1500 screws into the floor (They were originally nailed). Broke out the sander in a few places where there were some high spots that didn't require leveling compound.

Looking good!!

I am in the middle of a kitchen reno, I probably would have been done by now but they cant get one cabinet right!! Round 3!
I did the kitchen myself. It's not hard just time consuming and a little stressful getting everything level

What counter tops did you go with? We are going with granite, but unsure if 3CM is worth the extra cost

Yeah, it's like a puzzle for adults, the bases took maybe an hour? Nothing really complicated, I leveled all the ones against the wall myself with shims. It really is simple. The biggest pain in the ass was bringing them into the house, some of those triple pot drawer ones are heavy!

Countertops are Cambria. I've heard their templating technique is pretty cool, can't wait to see them in action tomorrow. My only concern is going to be the seam in the island (Island is 13ft long). I hope they put it right in the middle of the sink so it kinda disappears.

The real battle is going to be bringing the fridge and the range in from the oven. The fridge is something like 550lbs

When the cabinets where delivered they brought them right inside \:D I am not ripping out the floor, and it was tiled up to, but not under the original counters \:\( So that added to the fun.
The top ones went much faster for me than the bottoms

Ahh Cambria, sorry you said that and I missed it. Cool
