Joists are Jumpin' and Jivin'

It has been so exciting to see the left back side of our house have fresh wood installed.  All the floor joists had to be replaced because of dry rot and water damage.  If you recall, water pipes had been leaking under this section of the house for months.  I literally sat down with tears to think that we have finally reached this stage.  The insulation and crawl space work has been finished.  Once the center of the house has been closed in completely, and the plumbing stubbed out, we can take down the temporary wall and open up this area for use.  We plan on the guest half bath becoming our sink and toilet room plus a temporary shower in the utility room.  The main bath will have to be torn out and replaced in several phases to come!    What this means to me is a much more acceptable bathroom to enjoy.  Until further work is done....Charleston Renovator bids you a Happy Easter!

Greg installed a new joists underneath the current hardwood and subfloor that existed in the house!
